Lets not forget that this is a turn-around story of a company that previously did pay dividends. In fact, since 2005 VBA has paid 31c in fully franked dividends.
IMO I see no reason why given favourable market conditions they wont eventually be in a position to pay dividends again. It is just a matter of time-frame. I can understand that others will disagree with this, fair enough.
With regards to Branson, his company owns 26% of VBA. It is thus very much in his interest for the company to pay dividends.
Whilst I'm sorry that you did not enjoy your 2 flights, I fail to see relevance in your disparaging comments about the sexual preference of the flight stewards.
