    “There is no doubt this achievement is down to our amazing people who are at the heart of everything we do. It reflects our commitment to delivering consistently outstanding service and the wonderful experiences our cabin crew team bring to life every time you step onboard,” she said.

    We’ve rebuilt the airline from the ground up and continued to invest in areas that truly matter to our guests, and I am incredibly proud this has once again positioned us as one of the top ten airlines globally in the AirlineRatings.com Airline Excellence Awards.

    “This is testament that our irreverent challenger spirit continues to resonate with travellers, and the future is incredibly bright for Virgin Australia.”
