Probably way too early, but when are the 787s expected to arrive (barring Boeing delays)? 2014? Will they replace A330s or the older 744s? Any talk about how they would be integrated and what they could replace? I realise most likely speculation at this point.
Good luck to those who apply!

Thanks for the heads up. I'm signed up to the email alerts from Virgin careers but I didn't get one about this. Even in my junk folder, it's just the usual opportunities to enlarge parts of my anatomy.
Good luck everyone. I can imagine a lot of people fighting it out for this one. Sadly most will have a lot more experience than I have but it's worth a go.

Anyone else having trouble uploading the cover letter?
I managed the CV fine but every time I try the cover letter it says you much select a file to upload,,, this after I HAVE selected the file!!! guessing a glitch on the system, very frustrating

zerotohero,
I have the same result BUT the only 'starred' (required) item to upload seems to be the CV and I remember that only a CV was required last time (late 2011) too. If you just upload a CV then check the box saying the section is completed you are able to submit the application sans covering letter with no problem.
So it looks like the covering letter is not a requirement and can't be submitted anyway (unless it is a bug as you say)...unless anyone disagrees?

I bet it doesn't!
Judging from the chap I know who recently got the offer from Virgin, ratings, hours, long haul experience, command time etc are all completely irrelevant.
Lord only knows what he wrote on his CV / covering letter.

Nowhere near the legal limit. Virgin have a union agreement to only fly 750 hours per annum. Join BA and then you can go for the full 900 hours.
By the way, when I first got into this game, the limit was 1,000 hours per annum. It was then possible to have a medical and go on for another 200 hours if you passed.
