Aussie domestic carrier Virgin Blue has rebranded as Virgin Australia.
The new name coincided with the addition of a new Boeing 737-800 and Airbus A330-200 to the fleet, complete with new Virgin Australia livery.
The new aircraft also feature an updated economy offering and the introduction of a business class product for the first time.
John Borghetti, Virgin Australia’s CEO, said: “Virgin Australia will provide a new standard of airline travel in Australia.
“Our new business and economy class has been designed from the ground up by experts in their fields.”
He reassured customers that the airline will continue to offer low fares, despite the investment in new products.
“We have listened to what today’s traveller wants from an airline and we are incorporating that into every feature and every part of our service, while maintaining competitive pricing,” said Borghetti.
The updated interiors will be rolled out across the majority of Virgin Australia’s domestic fleet by the end of the year.
