Seems this may be their last 777 delivery. The Boeing orders website has a note
Changes since last update: 40 new orders: Virgin Blue Airlines (40 737s). In the Changes category, reduced 777 orders by two.
So they had 7 x 777's on order so once this is delviered all orders would have been fulfilled. I wonder if they will place an order for a smaller aircraft type (330/787) to fly some thiner routes closer to home.... or even to swap the 777 on HKT and use the 777 elsewhere.
Regardless, looks like the no new routes for VA for a while.
