Im so jealous :lol::lol::lol::whistle:
Have you got a spare $280 thousand to dollars buy ya self a ticket? To fly in to space :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: How cool would that be :D

Lest go guys there is still more tickets for sale :lol::lol::lol:
The goal is to sell at least another 200 tickets before launch - and 50,000 tickets in the first ten years of operation, though a drop in price to "around the price of a new car" may still be 15 years away.:doh:

Was that the price of a return ticket?
And how much is the travel insurance?

It would be very cool, however, I would want a couple hundred others to go up before me just in case :D. Remember what happened to Krista.

you know, there'd have to be some pretty serious vomit bags attached to these things... imagine the 'in the rare case of emergency' speech? "if the shuttle blows up, hold your breath? the exits are here and here? if expelled into space, make sure you're wearing a scarf?"

i'm sure virgin will find a way to make cash out of an unplanned dip in the MERCILESS ETERNITY OF SPACE... COMMEMORATIVE STUBBIES $9.50:thumbsup:
