Has anyone heard any more news/rumours about Virgin's foray into trhe low-cost market in the US?
Last reports were several months ago and nothing since then. If this is for real and they hope to be up and running by "June 2004", then they will have to start recruiting/training and acquiring aircraft pretty soon.
Also, past reports have suggested that Sir RB was looking @ an existing US carrier because of current US ownership laws (although on record he has said he would rather start his own from scratch than take on someone elses debt/problems). Be interesting to see which way he eventually goes. If Virgin Blue and Virgin Pacific Blue is anything to go by, it should be interesting watching this plan evolve.
Just wondering what the latest is...
Any reports in the Sunday Telegraph/Times/Guardian in recent weeks?
