Virgin America for the win.

This year, the Airline Passenger Experience Association (APEX) surveyed flyers the world over for their take on the best service, innovation and products in the sky. The result: a big round of applause for Virgin America and Red, our in-flight entertainment platform. Check out the awards we nabbed on September 16th:

Best Overall Passenger Experience

Elevate members get lucky in Toronto.

As the official airline of the Toronto International Film Festival (9/9 – 9/19), we invited people to sweet-talk their way to dinner and a movie on us. We put up banners and reached out via Virgin America, Virgin Mobile, and the Toronto Film Festival, asking potential suitors to send us their best pickup lines for the chance to win a flight to Toronto, tickets to the festival, and a dinner to set the mood. 5,800 entries later, these lines won us over:

“There’s no U or I in Toronto, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t go together, does it?”

“I think the captain needs to drop the oxygen mask, ‘cause you just took my breath away.”

“Hey baby, I don’t want to brag, but I was making hockey musicals long before they were the 'in' thing.”

We get around.

In addition to our hip destinations up north, back east, and along the west coast, we’re heading south to do Dallas Fort-Worth and sunny Orlando. Starting this winter, we’re even taking the party south of the border to two hot locales in Mexico: Los Cabos and Cancún. Check out our Route Map for details.
