Wi-Fi In The Sky- Virgin America's Inaugural Flight From SFO To The O.C.
The video clip above is from Virgin America’s Inaugural flight from San Fransisco to Orange County California, which took place at the end of April 2009.
It is something that I use as a guide to stay focused on my goal, which is to create and provide enjoyable experiences for our viewers. The primary buzz for this newly added destination on the Virgin America route is the
Wi Fi service offered, in addition to the luxury amenities that are associated with the
Virgin Brand.
Company founder Richard Branson was on hand for the event, acting as a tour guide for the tip and the before and after festivities .
The SFO-SNA inaugural flight will be celebrated with a surf band playing at the SFO departure gate, live interviews via WiFi stream at 35,000 feet, and a beach-meets-runway red carpet welcome at SNA. Upon touchdown at SNA, the first commercial guests, along with Cush and Virgin Group Founder and President Sir Richard Branson, will be greeted by local leaders and an unofficial Orange County welcoming committee, including the cast of Bravo’s “The Real Housewives of Orange County†and Red Bull athletes. Arriving guests will be feted at an exclusive tarmac soiree, with a menu prepared by Joie de Vivre’s Shorebreak Hotel chef Vincent Muraco and cocktails from KARMA California Brut, Red Bull, SkinnyGirl and VeeV, the world’s first AçaàSpirit. Bare Escentuals makeovers and Sunset Tan spray tans will be offered to flight guests on arrival.
As part of the launch of its new service, Virgin America is also giving a dozen fliers the “OC treatment for free,†with a seat on the first flight, a stay at Pacific Edge Hotel on Laguna Beach, and a South Coast Plaza shopping spree. The value of the winners’ seats will be donated to Virgin Unite’s partner, StandUp for Kids – a nonprofit outreach group making a difference in the lives of at-risk youth in Orange County.
My best estimates would indicate that the passengers will be looking for something fun and exciting to do before, during, and after the flight.
My work never ceases, yet I do love my job!
A different perspective to consider.
See You At The Top
