Oxymoron666,
No employee should subsidize their employer whan a business is profitable, and certainly not their customers. I fully accept the role Management has played. If you have made sacrifices during the hard times, you should be looked after when the better times return. Like I said, I have been lucky.
Equally, I would be prepared to pay a bit extra for my holiday if it was guaranteed to maintain and improve employees pay. Sadly, many consumers may not agree but I believe you get what you pay for in life.
Maybe I should have included the question "Do I think the Management of Virgin Atlantic is selfish?" in my original post.
