English is my second language, and even I know that the verb "to fly" is a radically changing verb so in the third person is, "he/she/it/virgin" "flies" not "flys".
It seems to be simply one of the many flaws in your post.
Which Virgin is this, Virgin Blue, Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Express?
Where did you hear this from? Why is this a concern?
Try making a point when you post!

I can only assume it's Virgin Blue and whoever told you this was pulling your leg. Flying BELOW the competition TO SAVE MONEY? Not likely. Of course, if they've got to fly at similar times on the same route, it's quite likely that VB has to fly below QF, but that's just the luck of the flight plan.

REGARDING RUDE REPLIES!!!
Unfortunatley there are some of the worlds biggest TOSSERS on this website, and I'm sure the people involved know who they are.
It's the TOSSERS on here that should be the ones making their point, now it's a shame coz this could be a good little place.
CHEERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

AT463, guess i'll have your answer...
Virgin Blue flies a cruising speed of M .72, compared to M .78 at Qantas. Pilots are only allowed to increase speed due to "bigger" operational reasons (airport closures etc...). This will make Virgin flights longer and saves them around 5% fuel costs.

I do apologise for my comments aimed at AT463, but it was such a ridiculous way to begin a post; no capital letter, punctuation, valid points to back up his query ... anything along those lines.
Just a simple sentence with a non-descript post title.
My beef on the matter is, is it really so hard to just check your spelling & grammar before making a post?

LITE!
I'm sure he accepts your appoligy, now the spelling there isn't great is it,
When we are posting replies quick or fast then some words are spelt wrong but I'm sure you can understand what they mean, I for instance won't bother checking it I'll just pst, coz it stops a lot of farting around,
Now if the spelling on PPRUNE is the most of your worries, I wish I was you!!!!
CHEERS!!!!!!!!
P.s No malliss intended,,,, now did I spell Mallis right, i'm not sure.
