Thinking about a trip to London? Don't want to fly British Airways and deal with the Terminal 5 baggage nightmare or Naomi Campbell going batshit for no good reason?

Virgin Atlantic has some spring deals on their Premium Economy class from a bunch of American cities to London.

For instance: Los Angeles to London is $464 one-way from Apr 24-May 25. Over the summer (until Sept. 3), the price jumps to $634 one-way. From Newark, the deal is much cheaper at $314 one-way from April 24-May 25. ($464 one-way over the summer.)

We recently flew Premium Economy and we think it's worth it if you're flying long-haul or if you're making a quick trip, like a weekend in London. There's a lot to be said for seven extra inches of legroom, a wider seat, power ports and meals served on china.

If you don't want to spring for premium economy, all of the seats on board have seatback TVs which we believe to be the saving grace of a long flight.

The only buzzkill on our virgin Virgin Atlantic flight? The check-in desk at Heathrow made us check our teeny carry-on because it weighed more than 6 kilos--thus defeating the purpose of our extra careful packing. Boooo!
