There is a small amount of expansion, yes. 1 Flight a week to Tobago/Turks , 2 to Port Harcourt if it happens and the splitting of a 747 to 2 A340's to Washington. However, HUNDREDS of people have left in the last few months due to the ongoing problems of very low pay and disruptive rostering that leaves the many youngsters worn out and wanting to go home! It's great if you haven't got a life and need an escape.
Go see the world for a year or two with Virgin, it's great for that. However, you have to ask yourself why an airline that is nearly 19 years old has a majority of cabin crew in their early twenties. The turnover is HUGE. There is no incentive to make a career here. The pension is awful and there is no reward to length of service in pay.
Be warned, that's all!
As to Sir Richard encourages applications from abraod, oh please!
"Sir Richard" will take ANYBODY from ANYWHERE that will work for low pay and awful conditions, as long as they look alright with a slap of red lipstick and a short skirt.
He will love telling you that he can't pay as much as BA, because the company has to make money. Check out the figures. BA make £245,000,000 PROFIT in the last QUARTER and Virgin lost £105,000, 000 last year.
It's all spin, spin, spin while the money trickles to the British Virgin Islands!
High as a Kite, what is with all the 'we' stuff? Have you got shares in the place and if so, how do you get them? Another thing BA do that Branson doesn't want you to have. A share in any success.
