Virgin Australia flight attendants have lost their long-running pillow fight over allowances, which started when management switched swanky hotels in Los Angeles for their overnight stays.
The two year tussle had its genesis in 2013 when Virgin’s contract to accommodate flight crew at the Hilton in Long Beach ended and the airline chose the Marriott Hotel in the San Fernando Valley for their overnight stays after marathon flights from Australia.
