Virgin Atlantic partnered with celebrity chef and master pâtissier Eric Lanlard to create a series of bespoke afternoon teas for the Virgin Atlantic London Heathrow Clubhouse and Virgin Atlantic’s day flights worldwide.

At the clubhouse, afternoon tea is available now, 3–5:30 p.m. daily. It includes a pot of tea or Lanson Rose Champagne with a bespoke stand of assorted items including savory tea sandwiches, scones, cakes and more.

Starting late summer, passengers in all Virgin Atlantic cabins enjoy the high tea experience, with handmade sandwiches, scones and a macaron assortment.

“Virgin Atlantic is famous for its award winning food and drink, and this year we’re taking that reputation to new heights. We’re excited to work with Eric Lanlard and introduce a fresh take on afternoon tea to our Heathrow Clubhouse from April, and onboard our flights from late summer. It’s the first time that Eric has partnered with an airline, and I think our customers are going to love it,” said Daniel Kerzner, vice president of customer experience, Virgin Atlantic.

“I am very excited about this new partnership and can’t wait to combine my passion for baking with air travel. And who better to do it with than a fun, dynamic and iconic brand such as Virgin Atlantic. We’re on a mission to own afternoon tea both in the air and on the ground at the Heathrow Clubhouse,” added Eric Landlard, master pâtissier.
