Where to live? (Gatwick and Heathrow contract)
profile image
user16937
Could anyone currently working at Virgin please let me know how it works regarding a contract which has you working out of both Heathrow and Gatwick? Is it an even split?

Just thinking several steps ahead of myself currently and that if, fingers crossed, I were to pass the AD, medical, training etc, where to base myself. I have family in Buckinghamshire and would be tempted to live up there and commute if Heathrow takes the lion's share of the flights, or somewhere in the Surrey commuter belt if it was an even split.

Could you give me your opinions on what is the most practical option?

Many thanks

Av.

Did you get any clarity on where to live I am in the same boat?

You don’t get offered a contract for both. You get offered a contract for Heathrow and they require you to operate the odd flight out of Gatwick.
Hope this helps and good luck in your assessment day, just be yourself!xx

Thanks for letting me know as I technically live closer to Gatwick but not too far from heathrow. I cannot wait to start training :-)
