But I had nothing whatsoever to worry about. The idea of 7 across had me somewhat dreading the long Los Angeles – Brisbane flight. But it’s also seven seats across in business class on a 777 (they’re updating seats this year to reverse herringbone four-across). There’s no question Virgin Australia is the easiest non-stop redemption between the US and Australia in a premium cabin - and probably the single best use of Delta miles.
The flight was over half boarded when we arrived, and I was excited and a bit nervous for the flight. We left the Star Alliance business class lounge, and its outdoor fire pit overlooking airport operations, for our gate.
