Inside Selling Sunset’s ‘biggest ever listing’ – Sir Richard Branson’s new Virgin plane

SELLING Sunset's Mary Fitzgerald and Chrishell Stause have been left stunned after landing their "biggest ever listing" - a swish Virgin plane.

The top brokers have been put in charge of Sir Richard Branson's brand new A350-1000, which even has an onboard 'social space' called The Loft.

Passengers can relax and enjoy both a cocktail and dinner with fellow travellers as they fly high above the Atlantic Ocean.

There is also an incredible 44 Upper Class flat beds, each with their own 18.5 inch screen TV, and 56 Premium and 235 Economy seats.

While visiting their unique listing for the first time, amazed Mary and Chrishell received a FaceTime call from the man himself - their new client Richard.

In a video clip, the British billionaire businessman can be seen telling the real estate agents and their boss Jason Oppenheim: "I'm just checking in to see what you think of our plane?"

Jason, President and Founder of The Oppenheim Group, replied: "It's amazing. I know they're going to love it. And don't worry, it's in safe hands. We've got this."

Wrapping up the call, Richard smiled as he warned: "This A350 plane is very special to us and our customers. Don't let me down, guys. Speak soon."

Before Jason hung up to pop a bottle of champagne, Mary and Chrishell chimed in: "Bye, Richard! We love you!"

The Selling Sunset ladies seemed thrilled with their new project and wasted no time bringing in vases of stunning red roses and even artwork to dress the jet liner.

But reflecting on the the enormous responsibility they have been given, Chrishell said to Mary: "So this is probably not going to be the most popular decision in the office with us being put on this listing."

Mary, however, replied: "No. But do you know what? I don't care because we're the best ones for the job. That's why we were asked, so..."

Smiling, Chrishell agreed: "I like that. Let's focus on that and just think about how amazing it's going to be to ring that bell and get that commission."

Selling Sunset is an American reality series that airs on Netflix. It centres around high-end real estate brokerage firm, The Oppenheim Group, based in Los Angeles.

But while the agents are usually tasked with selling luxury properties, Sir Richard Branson hopes the company can help tempt customers back into the skies in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The President of Virgin Atlantic says: "After two long years of restrictions, we know people are desperate to travel again and we want them to enjoy the amazing Virgin Atlantic experience.

"Who better to work with than Jason and his impressive team at The Oppenheim Group?

"Their energy and pitching technique is second to none and I know they are just the right people to promote Virgin Atlantic’s luxury travel experience on our newest aircraft, the A350-1000."
