Virgin Australia has strengthened its global presence by expanding its partnership with Amadeus, a leading travel technology provider. This expanded agreement will allow Virgin Australia to distribute its services to global travel agents through various booking platforms, including EDIFACT and NDC channels.
A man’s naked rampage on a Virgin Australia flight from Perth to Melbourne caused an emergency landing and led to his arrest. The flight, VA696, was forced to return to Perth Airport after the man, who was accused of sprinting naked through the plane and toppling a crew member, caused a disturbance. The Australian Federal Police removed the man when the plane landed, and he is expected to appear in a Perth court on June 14. Virgin Australia has apologized to the passengers affected by the incident and reaffirmed that safety is a priority.
