So when V Australia and Pacific Blue become Virgin Australia also, will the flight numbers all consolidate to either DJ or VA?

My belief was that V Australia will stay V Australia.

Mick,

It is included in the posts and in news reports, but V Australia and Pacific Blue will become Virgin Australia by the end of the year. An agreement was reached with Singapore Airlines and Virgin Atlantic. An online news report I saw also stated that SQ and VS would receive royalties from VA from then on.

Therefore I was wondering if the flight numbers would become consistent as either DJ or VA across the network.

Thanks Justin, too many pages of rubbish to work through to find all the articles.

Mods, I thought when an announcement was made a new thread was to be started?

Mick

Can you please post movements of the rebranded Virgin Australia jets to the Spotting Movements Forum, and keep this thread for branding related changes.

Thank you.

Default Richard wants red

Even though Virgin Australia has brand new uniforms with black shoes (female), Richard Branson demands red shoes instead of the new black ones, cause he reckons it's "sexier"
