Virgin, we missed you…

Today, I saw last flight of Virgin Atlantic Airways (VS) at Narita International Airport.

I got this novelty from VS staff. It’s very happy πŸ™‚

(In English: “London to Tokyo … Thank you for twenty five years.”)

About ten years ago, my wife lived in London. Then, she used VS frequently. And, we used VS at honeymoon πŸ™‚ Because, VS offers originality service than other airlines. So, VS was hold a lot of memories to us.

Twenty five years years ago, VS entered service to Narita. Now, four carrier(British Airways, JAL, ANA, and VS) are operating from Tokyo (Narita and Haneda) to London. But, today abandoned by VS. According to rumor, the abolition occurred by national policy. We called it “Narita Regulation” (Ref (Japanese): γ€Œζˆη”°ηΈ›γ‚Šγ€γƒ«γƒΌγƒ«γ―ε΄©ε£Šγ™γ‚‹γ‹γ€‚γƒ΄γ‚‘γƒΌγ‚Έγƒ³ζ’€ι€€γ§ANAγŒγ‚³γƒΌγƒ‰γ‚·γ‚§γ‚’ε€±γ„γ€ηΎ½η”°ι‹θˆͺができγͺくγͺγ‚‹οΌŸ | ζ—…θ‘Œη·εˆη ”η©Άζ‰€γ‚Ώγƒ“γƒͺγ‚Ή). If the rumour is truth, we are so sad πŸ™

It’s fine today but cold and windy. Many aviation enthusiasts gathered to Narita to see last flight. I’m one of them πŸ˜€ I was taking another airplane while was waiting for take off in the two and half hours. It’s chill that pierced into the marrow !!!

Soon, the time comes …
