    James Bond Seeks Out Virgin

    Sir Richard Branson, Virgin Atlantic check-in staff and one of the airline’s Airbus A340-600s are to appear in the new James Bond movie, Casino Royale, scheduled for release in November this year.

    As a global partner of the film, Virgin Atlantic will help promote the release of the movie, the 21st James Bond encounter, which will be released worldwide on November 17th.

    Sir Richard appears in Casino Royale during a check-in sequence at Miami Airport, one of Virgin Atlantic’s 27 destinations. The airport sequence also includes members of Virgin Atlantic’s cabin crew.

    Er chaps..., this seems to be a way old story. Casino Royal WAS James Bond no.21..., the Quantum of Solace is James Bond no.22.

    Looks like Virgin rehashed their press release, below I have copied how it should read, Typical PR from Virgin

    James Bond loves Aston Martin cars and when it comes to even higher flying it now seems that Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Atlantic is 007's airline of choice.

    For Virgin announced that the airline will again feature in the new Bond film Quantum of Solace, starring Daniel Craig as 007.

    This followed the cameo appearance that Sir Richard made in Craig's first outing as Bond in Casino Royale. Virgin aircraft were also seen in the movie.

    Virgin's arch rivals British Airways cut out Sir Richard and airbrushed the Virgin logo from the film when showing it in their in-flight entertainment system.

    BA was later expected to comment on what their in-flight policy will be when the new Bond film comes out in November this year.

    Virgin also announced that it will be a global partner for Quantum of Solace and will be supporting the film's release with a series of promotional and marketing initiatives.

    Sir Richard, the Virgin Atlantic president, said: "Virgin Atlantic and James Bond make a great partnership - slick, smooth and renowned the world over. Casino Royale propelled Bond to greater success and we're certain that Quantum of Solace will set an even higher standard."
