Australia's second-largest airline, redefining air travel.
Founded
2000
Headquarters
Brisbane, Australia
Virgin Australia is the second-largest airline in Australia, operating domestic and international services across a wide network. Founded in 2000 as Virgin Blue, the airline rebranded to Virgin Australia in 2011 as it pursued a full-service carrier strategy to compete with Qantas.
In 2020, the airline entered voluntary administration during the COVID-19 pandemic and was subsequently acquired by Bain Capital. It emerged from administration and resumed operations with a refocused business model targeting both leisure and business travellers.
Virgin Australia operates from its primary hub at Brisbane Airport and serves destinations across Australia, the Pacific, and select international routes. The airline is known for its Velocity Frequent Flyer loyalty program, which remains one of Australia's most popular rewards schemes.
