Is Air France good to fly?

Economy aboard Air France's A380 is somewhere between decent and unenjoyable. Pros: tasty French food and good service, a well-stocked IFE catalog, a staircase on a plane! Just about every airline that flies the jet puts its nicest cabin configuration on these planes.

Does Virgin America still fly?

Fourteen years after its founding, and over a decade since it began operations, Virgin America will no longer be flying. Virgin America will begin operating as Alaska Airlines starting tomorrow. That's not to say you will stop seeing Virgin America planes in the air and at the airport.
