Amadeus users can now access and book fares and inventory that Virgin America makes available to the public through its internal reservation system and its consumer website, as well as through third-party sites.
“Amadeus and Virgin America are both known for providing the best value to savvy travellers, so we’re pleased to announce this partnership and to give Amadeus customers the chance to experience our award-winning and unique low-fare service,” said Diana Walke, vice-president, planning and sales at Virgin America.

Our customers have long told us that access to complete content is their highest priority,” said Peter von Moltke, senior vice-president of the airline business group for Amadeus North America. “Full content agreements with North American carriers such as Virgin America are a significant part of our ongoing mission to provide our customers with the best service in the industry.”
