Bit of bad press for VS in Times Travel today

Just read this weeks Sunday Times travel section and VS had two embarrassing stories in there.

Firstly- apparently a pax on ORD-LHR got a dog onboard and into the cabin without anyone realising. Wasn't until mid flight, when CC heard a sound coming from an overhead bin that they realised a pax had smuggled a dog on in his carry on.

Secondly- bad press re Spice girls. The article said having the spice girls on board was a reason to avoid UC at all costs over the next couple of months.

The first one isn't so much for VS as it is for ORD. Major balls-up on the searches and screening there.

As for the second... My sentiments exactly

Not 100% sure but I got told that the Spice Girls were going to be flying on their own VS Aircraft not normal VS flights.

Oh! That's good, because VS have all of those spare aircraft that hardly ever get used. [:w][?]

I hope they get G-VSUN. [}:)]:D

Dogs are a frequent sight on my IAD to Denver trips. Just wondering if both stories have some link ?
