Virgin Hooch-lantic

My god. Could Virgin Atlantic get any cooler? --->

Virgin Atlantic Airways has teamed up with Bombay Sapphire to create what is believed to be the first-ever onboard cocktail bar.

Cabin crew on flights between New York and London will hand out a cocktail menu to Upper Class passengers during the first drinks service.

A dedicated mixologist will be stationed at the onboard bar creating the cocktails. Flight attendants will deliver the cocktails to Upper Class suites or passengers may also to come and sit at the bar.

"We have offered a successful cocktail service in the Heathrow Clubhouse for some months and would like to see if there is a demand for a similar service onboard," said airline spokeswoman Lysette Gauna.

The mixologist will be in a Bombay Sapphire uniform. He has received extensive safety procedure training to enable him to work onboard an aircraft but will not perform any additional duties throughout the flight.
