Looks like the Bills are Flying Virgin Atlantic to London

[Dan Darragh]

Comfy plane.

not a very big plane, either. i am guessing they have sent their equipment ahead of time for staging and prep.

 

i had meant to look and see when they were leaving

[Dan Darragh]

A350-1000 is huge, holds more than 400 passengers

Flew Virgin last night to London - “Economy Delight” - was NOT comfortable. 
 

But the city is packed with Bills fans.

The Bills are flying out today on Thursday. I would have guessed Monday or Tuesday just to get used to the time change.

I've never had the pleasure of climbing aboard a Virgin before.

For other sports who do a lot of international travel the standard operating procedure is either at least two weeks or go right before the event and don’t let the body slow down.

It would be the most Billsy thing ever for them to be the first team ever to die in a plane crash.

 

What would the league do?

 

😱😱😱

Guys, it was just a thought.

I think the team travels with like 150 people or so +\-. I’m guessing that means any first class seat has to sit next to somebody and everybody else gets a row to themselves.

 

If I book a flight last minute and can’t get extra leg room I always go to the back row window. More often than not the middle seat will be open and I can stretch diagonally.

I've never understood the appeal.

Well, we see who wins DC Tom's 'Idiot of the Week' award.

Check back at season's end to see if you advanced.

I have, she was giving me a piggy back at the time

Using Virgin is part of the NFL-London game contract.

Heathrow has an curfew, which this charter will comply with.

If you get there before the arrival curfew ends at 6am, you have to hold and wait it out, by holding over the village of Ockham.

That becomes an issue in the late fall/winter with stronger tailwinds.

Bro. What the *****?

[DrDawkinstein]

Interesting theyre going 7pm to 12:30am on this flight. Thought they would leave a bit later and land later into the day so they could go right into it.

 

If this is the team plane, I'm not a fan of these times.

Not only is this weird but inaccurate.  But weird is the root word.

Glad it wasn't Virgin Galactic.

This plane is HUGE.  So I expect them to have the lounge bed chairs where they all just sleep.  

 

Probably have an edible or two.  Nyquil.  Dream.
