Thumbs up

My thanks to the current Virgin guys posting info on here (without any bitterness or nonsense that comes from rival pilots/staff from outside airlines!), it helps us hoping to join/start with the company.

As to the "a few bits being eroded", " paid holidays are over", "not sure it will be the longhaul lifestyle many of us want"...
A couple of ques if current guys could give an opinion on...

Are these referring to just the change from 4/5 day holiday destination trips to 3day USA trips or are there more changes to t&c's that us on the outside haven't heard about?


How big a change are the changes having on a persons roster? I.e. a few extra USA per year, half the roster is 3days, roster looks nothing like it did 12months ago?

Is it across all fleets or are some collecting more of the 3day trips than others? I.e. as mostly Airbus routes cancelled are they getting the 3day USA or are the new 787s likely to pick them up?

Really appreciate any answers or personal opinions
