Virgin publishes a 44 in seated pitch and a fully flat bed up to 82 in long. Because the bed figure is maximum-only and the schema has no maximum-only measurement field, it is retained here rather than encoded as an exact bedLength value.

Current A350-1000 page: separate Loft and Booth subfleets, assigned registrations, 44/56/36/199 and 16/56/33/292 marketed seat counts, seat dimensions, and links to the two official seating-plan images.
The Booth registration list omits G-VELJ even though Virgin's current general fleet page lists it and Virgin's 2024 press kit assigns it to the 397-seat configuration. The page embeds a December 2022 Booth map that still visually marks the original 45-seat Economy Delight block, conflicting with the page's current explicit count of 33.

Official A350-1000 L01 seating plan with The Booth: exact rows and seat letters through row 82, 16 Upper Class / 56 Premium / 325 Economy geometry, Preferred Seat and original Economy Delight blocks, exit rows, bassinets, galleys, standard and accessible lavatories, and social space.
The embedded December 2022 image still marks the original 45-seat Economy Delight block, while Virgin's current page explicitly states 33; current numeric counts win. The image proves the seat grid and monuments but not which 12 of the old marked seats were reclassified, ordinary window alignment, or exact wing-row endpoints.

Current fleet page lists all twelve A350-1000 registrations, including G-VELJ (Benny Jet).
Lists the current A350 fleet but does not assign configurations; the 2024 press kit supplies G-VELJ's 397-seat assignment.

Official fleet table assigns G-VELJ and four other A350-1000 registrations to the 16 Upper Class / 56 Premium / 325 Economy, 397-seat configuration, and the other seven to the 335-seat configuration.
The 2024 table's Y+ column shows the launch-era 45-seat Delight subset and is arithmetically inconsistent with its 397 total if added separately; used only for registration-to-total configuration assignment. Virgin's current A350 page supplies the updated 33 Delight / 292 Classic-and-Light split.

Virgin's current A350 page explicitly gives the L01 leisure configuration as 16 Upper Class, 56 Premium, 33 Economy Delight and 292 Economy Classic/Light = 397. The official L01 image is transcribed row-by-row for geometry: Upper Class rows 1-4 (16, 1-2-1); Premium rows 21-27 (56, 2-4-2); forward Economy begins centre-only at row 45, adds the left block at 46 and the right block at 47, then runs full through row 63; rear Economy begins centre-only at 64, has Door 3 side pairs plus centre D/F/G at 65, and runs full 66-82 (325 total). Source conflict: the still-embedded December 2022 map visually marks the launch-era 45-seat Delight block (centre 65-71 and side blocks 66-69), while the current explicit page count is 33. Under the primary-source tie-break, the current number wins. Because no updated per-seat key is published, the generator assigns the smallest contiguous forward portion consistent with 33 seats — centre 65-69 and side blocks 66-68 — and marks all 33 seatTypeInferred; rows 69 side and 70-71 centre remain regular Economy pending an updated map. The current A350 subfleet list omits G-VELJ, but Virgin's current general fleet page lists it and Virgin's official 2024 fleet table assigns G-VELJ to 16J/56W/325Y = 397, yielding five Booth aircraft. Preferred Seat blocks are zones, not cabins. Door 3 side pairs are physically extra-legroom exit seats but remain Y tier because Virgin labels them separately from Delight. Window alignment remains unknown on window-position seats because the schematic does not prove alignment; no A350 engineering window grid exists. The verified row 82 exceeds the former registry maxRow 77, so the A350-1000 bound is narrowly extended to 82 with a documented note. Published pitch values are phrased as 'up to' and retained in legroomNotes because the schema lacks a maximum-only field.
