We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Emily Jablon:  Daraius and I went to Europe in September to celebrate our 2nd anniversary for ~2 weeks.  It was my first time in Italy so I was very excited!  In Italy, we visited Varenna on Lake Como, Milan, Venice, and Rome.

    Since we were in Europe, we visited a friend in Strasbourg, France and also spent a night in Zurich.  We started our trip with a one day layover in Chicago to see friends!

    Our Anniversary To Italy – Trip Report Index:

    Virgin Atlantic Lounge

    We went to the Virgin Atlantic arrival lounge in London since we had some time before our train to Paris was to board.

    Emily Outside the Virgin Atlantic Lounge in London

    The lounge was small, but had a funky look to it in keeping with the Virgin Atlantic brand.

    The main room had different types of seating.

    The Lounge had a Variety of Seating Options

    There was a bar that served food and drinks.

    Food and Drinks Were Available From the Bar

    We were thirsty from the long flight, so we ordered peppermint tea and a mixed berry smoothie.

    So Many Choices!

    There were spa appointments and rooms for showering.

    The Spa Menu

    Daraius had a quick shower while I relaxed. There was also a small business area with computers and printers.

    The Lounge Business Center

    We left the lounge in about 30 minutes because we had a train to catch!
