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, who replaced Paul Scurrah after Virgin Australia exited voluntary administration, said the airline would retain its core domestic lounge network in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and the Gold Coast, and would be uniquely positioned in the local market as the only carrier with a triple-cabin choice of seating; Business, Economy X and Economy.
