Spectrum Interactive has teamed up with Virgin Atlantic to deliver guest Wi-Fi provision at the airline’s flagship Clubhouse lounge at Gatwick’s South Terminal.

Spectrum focused on improving the passenger user-experience, and providing local dedicated technical, engineering and account management support, along with full customisation to reflect the Virgin Atlantic experience.

Graham Lampen, IT service manager at Virgin Atlantic said: “The timescale for getting our new Wi-Fi system up and running was very challenging, but Spectrum was able to design and install the service with minimum disruption and with zero downtime.” He added: “The feedback on the Spectrum service from visitors, staff and management has been very positive.”

“We are delighted to have been selected as Virgin Atlantic’s Wi-Fi provider;” said Daniel Gray, commercial director at Spectrum Interactive. “This agreement with such a prestigious and iconic travel brand further reinforces Spectrum’s position in the market and increases our footprint in airline lounges which has seen significant growth during the last two years, including installations into Virgin Holidays’ Vroom lounges.”

Virgin Atlantic is set to end services between Gatwick and Kingston.

From 25 March 2012, Virgin will stop flying from Gatwick to Kingston – currently, Gatwick to Kingston flights are operated by both Virgin and British Airways.

Virgin will continue to operate its twice-weekly Gatwick to Montego Bay flights.

Following a complete refurbishment, Virgin Atlantic has reopened its Gatwick Clubhouse.

The fully refurbished Gatwick Clubhouse now offers seating for 130 passengers and includes an entertainment lounge a business area, restaurant, family lounge, playground and complete relaxation in its Cowshed Spa.

The new Cowshed Spa offers a treatment area and shower facilities, and sits alongside an internal rock garden.

The airline first opened its Gatwick Clubhouse in September 1998.
