That was nothing, speculation but they were probably just some friends of people who work at NCL or something haha. I've seen loads of virgin crew at NCL before and once I went up to one (she wasn't busy) and she said that her parents etc lived up here but she was based at LHR so she said she flew up from LHR every week or every other week whenever she had days off to see them, so... Could have something to do with that, as I say, friends up for a look around. They'll all have airside passes. Or it could be to do with the few virgin holiday places popping up around the NE.
I asked one of them too and they said that there was potential after 2015 at the earliest. She said we might hear something in 2016/17. 787's???
