In its move to attract customers, British airline Virgin Atlantic Airways Limited has come with an unique offer for its customers by offering free trip to space for the most frequently fliers for the next year.
Virgin Airlines honcho Richard Branson's space tourism company Virgin Galactic is already active in providing with sub-orbital flights to just outside of the earth's atmosphere, with a price tag of 200,000 dollars to the would-be astronauts.
The customer building the maximum points from now to August 7, 2013 will win a free flight to space in Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo, the Daily Mail reports.
Moreover, the runner-up will be taken to a free zero-gravity flight aboard a modified aeroplane on earth.
Virgin Galactic is considered as the world's first commercial 'spaceline'
that has carried out successful test flights using SpaceShipTwo, but still
awaited to fly any tourists into space.
More than 500 people have already paid the sum to lock a place on a
200,000-pound trip, the paper said.
