Commentary from a Virgin Australia Group spokesperson: 

Virgin Australia welcomes the arrangements foreshadowed by the Victorian and Queensland Governments to re-open their states to interstate travellers once vaccination thresholds are met.

Already we can see travellers are excited by the prospects of flying again, which has been evident by the significant uplift in website traffic and bookings.

Overall, we recorded a 134 per cent increase in bookings yesterday and Velocity Frequent Flyer experienced its single largest day of Points redemption bookings since June, which is a fantastic result and snapshot of the pent-up demand to come once borders re-open.

Virgin Australia will continue to review our schedule and add flights in line with demand as travel restrictions ease.

We’re also continuing to give travellers generous booking flexibility and just last week we announced the extension of our Flexible Flying policy for travel to 30 April 2021. It means that travellers can have confidence to make a booking with Virgin Australia now knowing they can easily change it if they need to.
