Virgin Atlantic Questions - the Master Thread! (Merged)
Hello All.
I'm considering putting in the application to Virgin, and wondering if anyone could help with some questions. I have seen the previous threads, but hoped for some new up to date info.
Firstly, I would hope to stay living in the Manchester area, and wondered how people get on with commuting?
What is the average take hope pay in the first couple of years, and what is the bond like?
I understand that Virgin is growing rapidly, with lots of new a/c on order - with this in mind, what is the anticipated time to command?
So far, I have only flown short/medium haul (I should be starting long haul this winter). How do you generally find long/ultra long-haul flying, and do you get used to the lack of handling? Also, do you get to know your peers, or is it a new face every time?
I would be interested to hear any other points that you may feel are relevant - good and bad.
Thanks for any help you can give me, I will appreciate it.
