Dear Cindy,
I see you post regularly about flying Virgin Atlantic - and drinking Virgin Redhead cocktails in the Virgin lounge. Do you ever fly any other airline?! What is it about Virgin Atlantic that makes you such a big fan?
I’ve been flying Virgin Atlantic since soon after they launched in 1984, though back in the day, only occasionally - when I was living and working in advertising in London, doing a ton of business travel, British Airways was my corporate travel airline (I clocked up so many airmiles with BA that I was able to use them to fly London > New York > London on Concorde for free - but that’s a story for another time 🙂). But since I moved to New York 25 years ago, Virgin Atlantic has been my airline of choice for transatlantic travel - because I’m a big fan, not just of Virgin Atlantic, but of Richard Branson, Virgin’s founder, and his vision for what is my favorite airline.
It’s impossible to overstate how revolutionary Virgin Atlantic was when it launched
