V-Flyer

just found out that VA have been approved to launch their flights.
I am so happy for those who have worked to try and get VA flying especially the legal team i think that they all deserve a drink. Mid summer launch sounds good. here is the link on the VA site.Link
just got one question. Why do they need a Waiver to sell tickets?

It is a happy day today, I can't wait until VX starts. I'm guessing the waiver is because Virgin hasn't passed safety tests yet?

Oh yeah, and the names they picked for the 8 aircraft are terrible.

I received the email with the great news.[^] [^] I can't wait to try VA.

I agree with Nick about VX's aircraft names. Lessons in creativity definitely required from Crawley...

Great news to hear that VX have the final go-ahead...[y]

Great News! Can't wait for those schedules to be posted.

On the BBC website

VA is go!!

Oh those names are awful....

great news though, looking forward to trying VX out (once I've sorted my Au for this year)
