I guess it depends how desperate you are for LH ? You still have age on your side so could go to Virgin and if they throw you out in a few years then who cares. BUT as another poster has mentioned having a 350/330/787 type rating isn’t actually that good for job prospects compared to say a 737/320 especially if you are cruise relief !
BA could be a better option at your age ? Or if you want the cash jet2 ?
