No flights available to book on the Virgin Atlantic website for summer 2021. Sadly this announcement appeared to be some positive news by management exercise on a particular day which you can't blame them for given that the whole existence of Virgin Atlantic is on a knife edge. The venture capitalists/hedge funds that are lining up as potential investors are absolutely horrid setups like vultures flying overhead dying prey. They really need to get Branson to sell his Virgin Galactic stake asap (maybe he has but I see contradicting reports) and get to this magic 750 million mark to see if the chancellor will help out. The market is worsening with the 14 day quarantine policy and accelerating the prospect of this airline (and others) going bust, what a sad set of circumstances it is. Let's hope they can pull themselves out of this unfolding disaster.
