Some questions for the Virgin Crews
Hello everyone,
This is my first post and I am quite excited. I am going for a Virgin Atlantic interview on 13th of July and I have couple of questions in my head. I will be really greatful if some of you guys can help me out.
If I fly for Virgin, would I be based at just LHR or just LGW, or is it mixed, meaning one day I may fly from LHR and another day go on a flight from LGW? And if that is the case, does Virgin provide any Crew transportation or will I be needing a car to commute between the two airports? I know BA has separate crews for Heathrow and Gatwick.
Another question that I have is if the Virgin crew can bid for their flights, or request certain prefernces? Or will I be in the hands of the crew schedulers?
I would really appreciate some feedback please. I already have a job offer from BA but I still want to give Virgin a shot before I make a choice between the two.
Thanks guys,
