Thanks for the heads up, HG. Unfortunately 0820 is a tad too early for me on a weekend off. [:I]

If anyone finds a link to the interview before I do, can they post it here, please?

Nick

He is also flying round the world today on Virgin Atlantic - 'the first airline to be able to fly round the world without having to use a code share' he says and launcing Virgin Active in Australia en route.

I think he may be wrong... (not for the first time!)
I believe Air New Zealand offer a single airline RTW service via HKG and LAX
