Virgin Australia is the country's second-largest airline group, bringing great value and choice to Australian skies for more than two decades.
Founded in 2000, Virgin Australia employs more than 8,000 team members and operates an extensive domestic network as well as short-haul international services, charter and cargo operations.
In 2020, Virgin Australia embarked on a new chapter in its history relaunching as a value carrier and setting out on a multi-year transformation. This has seen the airline grow its fleet, hire thousands of new team members, invest in significant customer initiatives including first-to-market technology, and return to profitability for the first time in more than a decade.
Velocity Frequent Flyer is the loyalty program of Virgin Australia. The program boasts over 13 million members and offers hundreds of thousands of Reward Seats to more than 600 destinations around the world through Virgin Australia’s own network, and an extensive list of international airline partners including Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, United Airlines, All Nippon Airways and Air Canada.
Virgin Australia is part of a very big family, the Virgin Group. Conceived in 1970 by Sir Richard Branson, the Group has become one of the most highly respected global brand names of the 21st century.
