when i did post the information about virgin, i did state it was with a heavy pinch of salt. i asked a manager about it and he did confirm there looking at pik, what pik can offer cost and facility wise. thats all i know, maybe they have already ruled it out, who knows? but they have been in 4 times and were in yesterday for a meeting. virgin would no doubt do there homework and weigh all the pros and cons. would say its costs at pik v better facilities at gla.both are feesible options i would say? lets here some opinions on it it with some pros and cons, not just dismissing it without reason. can a 747 depart full of pax and full of fuel to go the distance? at pik it can, thats a pro for pik, departure lounge at pik, thats a negative for me, your thoughts please
