Hi Jenn,

Again, sorry for the late reply, I dont check PPRuNe that often, and I have just been on a looooong trip.

Of course I don't mind you asking me questions...

You now only have to be 18 to join Virgin as cabin crew. It used to be 19-32 but the law changed earlier this year making it illegal to discriminate against people due to their age. So the age limit is now 18-retirement age. I have flown with a few 18 year olds, and and also some older crew (who are fab to work with )

I've been with Virgin 3 and a bit years, and as for my favourite destination... its SO hard to say because I like different places for different reasons. Some of my favourite trips are...

Las Vegas because I just LOVE Vegas. I think everyone who goes there either falls in love with the place or totally hates it. I love the nightlife there as well as the heat, going to Lake Mead, the Grand Canyon and just enjoying the different hotels on the strip.

San Francisco for shopping, night life, the golden gate bridge and alcatraz. Its also a really well paid trip in Virgin.

Hong Kong because its a 9 day trip and it barely involves seeing daylight at all! (Its a party trip).

Cape Town for the beautiful scenery, the beaches, the food and wine, the beautiful people and the lack of time zone change from the UK!
They are my personal favourites, but everyone varies, and the great thing about working for Virgin is that you can swap any trips you want on our V-Swap system (which BA do NOT have!)

Oh yeah, and I nearly forgot to tell you, I printed out the page from you 1st message and found that girls drop file, so whenever shes next into work she will get it!
