Delay!

Hey guys.

I've just received an email from V Australia telling me due to unforseen industrial action at Boeing in Seattle, V Australia has pushed back its launch until 28 February 2009.

I got the email becasue I'm booked to fly on them to LA in January.

This is what they said about alternative options.

"In the first instance, from today we have commenced contacting all Guests booked in the period 15 December 2008 to 16 January 2009 to offer the following alternative arrangements:
  1. If you wish to rebook on V Australia for flights that depart on or after 1 March 2009, we would be delighted to reaccommodate you at no additional cost. As a goodwill gesture we would also provide you with a $200 voucher for travel on Virgin Blue's Australian network;
  2. If you prefer, we can provide you with a full refund; or
  3. We will do our very best to secure an alternative flight on another airline, arranged at our expense."
I think I'm going to choose option 3. I have no idea what this means to all you guys in and about to start training!

Keep us posted!
