They are loos with quite extraordinary views.<\/p>\n
Passengers flying upper class (aka business) on Virgin Atlantic A350-1000 aircraft are able to gaze upon the world from 38,000ft during bathroom visits \u2013 because the toilets have windows.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a feature that\u2019s highlighted by airline captain Chris Pohl, who posted a clip of the eye-catching feature to his Instagram feed.<\/p>\n
Australian Chris, who has been flying for 42 years and logged over 25,000 flying hours, captioned his clip with the following: \u2018It\u2019s the ultimate first-class experience, making those mundane moments truly unforgettable.\u2019<\/p>\n

And he told MailOnline Travel: ‘I think it\u2019s a very cool feature and I\u2019ve seen passengers posting on Instagram about it.’<\/p>\n
One such passenger is Scottish-American actor and singer John Barrowman.<\/p>\n
He posted a clip of himself in one of Virgin\u2019s bathroom-with-a-view cubicles, describing the concept as \u2018fabulous\u2019.<\/p>\n
His clip has had almost 30,000 views.<\/p>\n
Delta passengers can also enjoy loo views, as bathroom windows are a feature on the carrier’s Airbus A220 planes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The airline was the first in the US to take delivery of this new Airbus model.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chris, who has 384,000 Instagram followers for his @captainchris account, added: ‘I began my Instagram account during the pandemic to promote aviation and support my grounded colleagues. My following grew rapidly due to a captive (locked down) worldwide audience, fascinated by where I was flying to and how we operated safely during the pandemic.<\/p>\n
‘As pilots returned to the skies I was responsible for much of their simulator and flight training and my daily Instagram posts sent a positive message that aviation was recovering from the pandemic.<\/p>\n
‘Now that the skies and airliners are full again, I use Instagram to inspire, educate and entertain. I like to inspire young people to consider a career as a pilot, I educate the flying public and answer their questions. And I entertain aviation geeks with fun posts – like the toilet one – worldwide.<\/p>\n
‘I enjoy posting a positive message every day as it\u2019s become part of my daily life now and it\u2019s also good for my mental health.’<\/p>\n
