Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Uh, banks like TSB, NatWest used to be my clients.

I used to work on, um, Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Holidays.

Uh, I used to be the, the brands that I used to look at their data.

I used to look at their Google Analytics, their user analytics.

Next up, if you've ever gotten to the end of a travel booking and been surprised by fees that weren't in the original price, I think we all have, the UK is trying to fix that.

Britain's competition regulator just opened formal investigations into Virgin Atlantic Holidays and Trainline for drip pricing.

That is basically hiding mandatory fees until the very end of checkout, things like resort fees, local taxes, booking charges that can add up hundreds of dollars onto a trip.

Now, the regulator can now fine companies up to 10% of global revenue without going to court.

Uh, so you know, keep all that in mind.

By the way, Virgin Atlantic holidays, I mentioned how leisure is so important to them.

16%, almost 1/5 of their entire revenues are just from, just from Virgin Holidays.

That's their tour packaging, uh, arm where, you know, people are buying not just the airline ticket, but also the hotel and maybe some other travel services.

Uh, they also have a cargo, uh, operation which is about 7%.
