The ‘Virgin Global West’ option takes passengers from London Heathrow to Los Angeles with Virgin Atlantic, then onto Sydney with V Australia, from Sydney to Hong Kong and then back to London with Virgin Atlantic.



The launch of the new fares coincide with Sir Richard Branson’s ‘Round the world in 8 days’ tour, celebrating the 25th birthday of Virgin Atlantic and the launch of V Australia on 27-Feb-09.

President of Virgin Atlantic, Sir Richard Branson said, "Passengers now have a fantastic choice to make - which way to go around the world with Virgin! The combination of Virgin Atlantic and V Australia offers travellers huge flexibility in their global planning and some of the best value round the world fares available.
