Why should this airline be added?
V Australia is an Australian international airline under the Virgin Group, primarily focused on operating long haul international routes. It was founded in 2008 and is headquartered in Sydney. Its hub airport is Kingsford Smith Airport in Sydney, with main routes connecting Australia to destinations in the United States (such as Los Angeles and San Francisco) and South Africa (Johannesburg). The airline is affiliated with Virgin Australia Group, with a brand positioning towards the mid-range market, offering economy and business class services, and was once characterized by flexible ticket prices and comfortable cabin experiences. However, with the business integration of Virgin Australia Group, the V Australia brand gradually integrated into Virgin Australia’s international route network. Currently, most of its original routes are operated by Virgin Australia under a unified brand. In terms of fleet, V Australia mainly operated wide body aircraft such as the Boeing 777-300ER to meet the needs of long-distance intercontinental flights.
