On behalf of VTTS I asked Virgin Group (I had a face to face with RB's CEO)and also the MD of Virgin Atlantic. It does not sit in the profile of Virgin and they do not need brand awareness in this country due to organic growth of the brand being a GB brand.
Virgin have just entered into a big deal to sponsor the London Marathon from 2010 so they are tied up for the time being.
Money is out there, but not the one or two big companies wanting to plough in a million each into what is at the end of the day - was the original WMD.
I know we love the aircraft, the sound, you name it, but we are a niche bunch of boys and girls when you look at GB as a whole.
