Incredible comfort, service and meals. That's the short take of my experience flying coast to coast from Sydney to Perth on Virgin Australia last month.

In an effort to lure a greater share of business travelers away from Qantas, Virgin Australia recently upgraded their aircraft and service on the highly competitive, five-hour journey across the continent.

Here's a full review of my Virgin Australia experience in business class for this installment of "Road Warrior Tested."

Route: Sydney to Perth, Australia.

Aircraft: An Airbus A330 featuring 24 leather, lie-flat seats in business class and 255 leather seats in economy.

Cabin/Seat Assignment: Business class seat 3K, a lie-flat window seat, which offered up to 60 inches of space between rows and a 19.5-inch wide seat.

Comfort: Airbus A330s are typically flown on international routes. Virgin Australia's domestic version of the aircraft can easily compete with the top-rated airlines in the world in terms of comfort and cabin layout.
