Virgin America is an airline bringing style back to American air travel, operating flights to major US cities and Mexican resort towns from San Francisco and Los Angeles.

One notable subcontractor for DirectAir has been Virgin America, who leased out some of their Airbuses and the crews to operate them in 2008.
Ramp agents with JetBlue—the Official Airline of the New York Jets—pay homage to quarterback Tim Tebow, who was acquired by the Jets via trade from the Denver Broncos.
Slightly awkward “tailgate” party at Philadelphia to welcome Virgin America.
Gotta love how VX introduces new destinations. Like how PHL was tied into “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”. Or how DFW had a Texas-style BBQ on the tarmac. Or how the PDX service had a Portland-themed contest to name the airline’s 50th plane. Or even the party planes that flew to PSP during the Coachella music festival.
