Rumour? JB has been quoted as saying that 3 years would've seen the company out. Not necessarily based on just VA's lack of contribution to the bottom line, but an overall picture based on the competition, where we stand as an airline, the loss making areas etc. His opinion only, however, one would be silly not to respect his judgement. As a result, changes aplenty, first with upper/middle management, and more recently, flight ops. Look for more changes to who does what work around the place too, as the word is PB WILL be getting ALL the international work besides VA's. VA makes money to LA. It loses it and more by going to Phuket and Fiji, don't know about Seth Effrica. PB will be the "Jetstar" of
VB, mark my words.
