London-Australia by Christmas, says Branson
At last a Pom will save the Poms , the airlines here take the piss big time so keep your fingers crossed Sir Richard will shake the buggers up.
Sir Richard Branson's latest extravagant pledge, this time to start Virgin Atlantic flights to Australia by Christmas, appeared to leave some aviation analysts baffled yesterday, and even some of his own staff bemused.
After meeting with Tourism Minister Joe Hockey in London, Sir Richard said that "maybe by Christmas or early in the New Year we'll see Virgin Atlantic flying either to Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne, or even two or three of those cities".
