Virgin gets flirty over Vegas

Friday, 26 April 20133 min read

Virgin America has found a new way to entertain high-rollers flying to Vegas.

Using their digital seat map, passengers can send a drink over to the cute girl in row 43 and then follow up by texting their favorite pick-up lines.

Sir Richard Branson claims the odds are good of disembarking with a plus-one: at least 1:2.

The service launched this week to kick off Virgin’s new Los Angeles to Las Vegas routes, but it’s available on all US flights.

Who knows? Using an in-flight entertainment system and seat-seat messaging system may just replace the singles bar. In less than a week, it already has a name.

It’s called "flight flirting."
