Damn! Missed this, flying the other way this morning
Even better:
Richard Branson gifts Virgin passengers on a domestic flight a free cruise
Passengers on-board a Virgin Australia flight were left in complete shock when founder Sir Richard Branson dialled in via Facetime and offered them a free holiday worth up to $7,000 each.
The more than 150 passengers were on flight VA 1316, heading from Melbourne to Hobart on Thursday morning when the man himself gifted them a free Virgin Voyages sail to celebrate the cruise lineās arrival in Australia.
Even better:
In an unexpected twist, just before the door was closed on the plane, Branson also surprised the cabin crew, ground crew, baggage handlers and pilots on the flight by gifting them a free cruise. In total he gave away more than $1 million in free holidays.
