Upgrade Please?

Virgin Atlantic has revealed some of its more unusual upgrade requests.

Your Packing Personality

From bikinis and bow ties to snorkels and stilettos, you can tell a lot about a person by what they take on holiday.

Travel App Friend Finder

In a world first, Friend Compass from travel search site momondo connects your Facebook friends with flight searches to the places they live. Turning your smartphone into a compass, it instantly reveals where your friends live around the world, and how much it costs to go visit them.

As well as pointing out the directions in which all your friends live, the app tells you who lives in the hottest destination, who lives in the coldest destination, and who lives the farthest away. You can also see which friends are the cheapest and most expensive to visit by plane.

You can also setup Friend Compass to find your friends 'nationally', 'regionally' or 'globally'. You can also switch to City View, which enables you to locate many of the top destinations worldwide relative to your current position and find the best flights to these places.

 The app is available on iPhone and Android.
