Rumors have been circulating that the famous bearded englishman; Sir Richard Branson is giving up Virgin Atlantic. Apparently the head of British Airways, Mr. Willie Walsh started the rumors and now Branson says he is willing to pay One Million Pounds to BA's staff if Virgin Atlantic disappears within 5 years. If not, BA owes his staff the money.
Richard had this to say:
"Virgin Atlantic was my baby 28 years ago. When we set up with just one plane. Like all children they never really stop being your babies and Virgin Atlantic is still much cherished. It has grown into a wonderful airline which has punched above it's weight for almost three decades, giving much larger airlines a run for their money.
We intend to carry on doing so for many years to come and, contrary to BA's hopes we have no plans to disappear. But since they are so confident, will BA accept our challenge?"
Well we have got to wait and see...
