Passengers on a Detroit-bound Virgin Atlantic flight were treated to a spontaneous performance this week when Motown the Musical cast members who were aboard the aircraft broke into song and dance.

In the video, both the crew and passengers, including Virgin Atlantic's founder Richard Branson who was traveling to Detroit to promote the airline's new non-stop flights between London and the Motor City, are seen totally taken by surprise at the impromptu rendition of 'Get Ready' by the Temptations.
