VIRGIN ATLANTIC is to further increase its commitment to Nigeria with the introduction in January of a twice weekly service to Port Harcourt, the oil capital of West Africa. In July 2001 the airline launched a successful service to Lagos, now daily (except Tuesday). Unlike that route, flown by a Boeing 747, the new Heathrow service will be operated by an Airbus A340-300 configured with 40 Upper Class, 28 Premium Economy and 187 Economy seats. The airline has also launched a brand new Upper Class travel kit for all passengers travelling on flights into and out of Heathrow. The kit has been designed in conjunction with cutting-edge designer cosmetics company, Space.NK.
