Virgin Atlantic Orders Additional 9 Airbus A330neo Aircraft, Completes Fleet Renewals
Virgin Atlantic has placed an additional order for seven Airbus A330-900 aircraft, as announced at the Farnborough Airshow.
This brings the total number of orders for the model to 19. Currently, five are in operation, with three more expected by the end of the year, and four more by 2026. The newly ordered aircraft are expected to start being received from 2027.
The order was announced onboard an Airbus A330-900 named ‘Ruby Red’ (registration: GB-VSRG) commemorating the 40th anniversary of Virgin Atlantic’s foundation. This aircraft is on display at the Farnborough Airshow.
As part of the fleet renewal, starting from September, Virgin Atlantic will gradually retire its ten Airbus A330-300 aircraft. By 2028, the airline will have a fleet of 19 Airbus A330-900s, 12 Airbus A350-1000s, and 14 Boeing 787-9s, totaling 45 aircraft.
