Introducing Our Beautiful V Australia Fleet!
Our V Australia jets may look pretty, but we all know beauty is only skin deep. Beneath the shiny silver and red livery and you will find some of the most advanced avionics in history.
The Boeing 777-300ER is the largest long-range twin-engine commercial aircraft in the world. Capable of carrying over 350 passengers up to 14,600 kilometres, the aircraft also has a take-off weight of more than 350 tonnes - pretty and powerful!
The Boeing B777-300ER aircraft is powered by the world’s largest and most powerful commercial jet engines, the General Electric GE90, producing 115,000 pounds of thrust. That’s more than four times the thrust produced by our Australian domestic airline, Virgin Blue’s 737-800 aircraft.
Thanks to a new wing, more efficient engines and a lighter structure, the 777-300ER makes better use of fuel, meaning lower emissions per seat. For every unit of fuel saved, three fewer units of carbon dioxide are generated. The bottom line - fuel efficiency isn't just good for economics, it's also great for the environment. Just another reason why V Australia has selected the B777-300ER.
While carbon dioxide affects the global atmosphere, other emissions such as hydrocarbons, (which contribute to local smog) have an impact on air quality near airports. Boeing and General Electrics have worked continually to reduce such emissions, and the results speak for themselves. In fact, with the 777 we can all breathe a little easier as the aircraft meets tomorrow's international emissions standards today!

Comfort
The 777’s Boeing ‘Signature Interior’ is one of the most spacious and comfortable Guest cabins ever developed. When closed, the large overhead compartment units fit neatly into the streamlined contours of the interior to allow plenty of overhead room and increased stowage.
The Cabin Crew will have their own rest area situated above the Guests, containing individual bunks for up to 8 people. Not to be forgotten, the Flight Crew have their own reclining seat and a bed in their rest area.
Entertainment
Guests will be captivated by our state of the art in-flight entertainment have a choice of in-flight meals and complete their V Australia experience with the fabulous service provided by our Cabin Crew!
