Virgin Australia‘s new CEO and Managing Director, Jayne Hrdlicka, has this week taken over the Australia airline and unveiled the carrier’s future direction as a “mid-market” player.
Hrdlicka replaced Paul Scurrah after Virgin Australia exited voluntary administration. Under her leadership the airline will retain its core domestic lounge network in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and the Gold Coast. It will also be the only carrier with a triple-cabin choice of seating; Business, Economy X and Economy.
New technology will provide a simplified check-in and airport experience, along with lower airfares, she said.
