Isn't Branson in the process of setting up Virgin USA? If so, between the Virgin Airline Brands (Nigeria, Blue, Atlantic and USA) and SQ, they pretty much have all the world covered. All they now need is to set up a South American carrier and SQ can exit Star and form a new 'alliance' with the Virgin group.
