The airline has announced that it will end service to John Wayne Airport (SNA) effective May 26, 2010. Given Virgin America's new fleet plan, the move will allow the airline to immediately launch service into the more lucrative Orlando and Toronto long-haul markets. All of Virgin America's SNA teammates will be guaranteed equivalent positions at the airline's expanding LAX base or in other areas of its growing operation.
"Despite our relatively strong performance at SNA, given our new fleet plan and network prospects, we've made the decision to focus on the immediate long-haul opportunities that the Orlando and Toronto markets provide. We thank the SNA airport leadership and community for supporting us – and our teammates for their dedication," added Cush. (Virgin America - Press Release)
