V Australia announces SYD-LAX as launch route


Good news for Australian travellers (and American travelers) looking for flights between the US and Australia.

Australia's newest international Airline, V Australia, has announced daily direct Sydney-Los Angeles flights as its inaugural trans-Pacific route when it takes to the skies from 15 December 2008.

Fares are on sale now from $999 AUD return, inclusive of taxes and charges of approximately $415 AUD.

The airline has also announced that Northwest Airlines will offer codeshare flights across the United States and Canada.

V Australia, part of the Virgin Group, will be the first Australian airline (subject to regulatory approval) to offer an alternative to Qantas on the trans-Pacific route, which is possible now after the Open Skies Accord between Australia and the US that was agreed to last month.
