The Flight Centre: get on the guest list

Race away with Lewis Hamilton

Airline chauffeurs can save your life. Don’t believe me? Just ask Mario Balotelli. The enigmatic footballer made headlines again recently after being spotted by some eagle eyed Manchester City supporters coming off a Ryanair flight at Manchester Airport. As the hysteria built up, the footballer was soon overwhelmed and, still without his bags, jumped into the men’s toilets where he locked himself inside a cubicle. Eventually he was rescued by airport staff and taken to a chauffeur driven car that had been waiting for him.

Flying with Emirates in business entitles you to a complimentary chauffeur service to and from the airport, say Brighton to Gatwick. Even better, Virgin Atlantic has started the ‘Guest List’, a VIP treatment to Gatwick or Heathrow available on a trial basis from 14 August 2012. Whether you’re flying in Economy or Premium Economy, the ‘Guest List’ includes a chauffeur driven car, Upper Class check in, baggage tagging and priority security passes, as well as a three hour visit to the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse at Gatwick with a complimentary spa or hair treatment. Virgin Guest list costs £170 per person for two people travelling one-way or £250 return. Back of the net.
