SEE THE WORLD DIFFERENTLY

Virgin Atlantic has always challenged the status quo.
And that iconoclastic spirit is now more important than ever, as we enter an exciting new era of travel.
So we've put it at the heart of the new platform we've developed for the brand: See the World Differently.

We continue to back this up with a series of tangible actions, but for launch,

we focused on the thing that, above all, makes Virgin Atlantic different.
The amazing people - customers and crew - who fly their own path.



RUNWAY ON A RUNWAY

Since the new platform launched, the airline has run a series of industry-leading inclusivity initiatives for its people.

For example, Virgin Atlantic removed the requirement for colleagues to wear gendered uniform options.

The crew now have the freedom to choose the uniform that they feel most comfortable in,

and which best represents who they truly are.

We brought this policy change to life, alongside our friends at Tin Man, with a ‘Runway on a Runway’.

The iconic uniforms were modelled by crew, non-binary influencers, dancers and Drag Race sensation, Michelle Visage.

The activity generated over 450 pieces of coverage and an organic social reach of over 4M.

And the number of applications to work at Virgin Atlantic has doubled since the launch of the campaign.

LITTLE TOUCHES, BIG ATTITUDE

The ‘See the World Differently’ platform also informs our onboard experience.

Whether it's Love Hearts instead of boiled sweets for landing, a High Tea at 36,000 feet,

or salt and pepper pots you're encouraged to steal, we see even the most mundane of moments as an opportunity for creativity.

To showcase these unexpected touches, we developed a campaign

that puts them front and centre with bags of swagger, attitude and energy.

 

FLIGHT100

In 2023, Virgin Atlantic pioneered the first commercial transatlantic flight on 100% sustainable aviation fuel,

giving further evidence of how the airline See the World Differently.


Many said it couldn’t be done, but with a serious amount of brain power, a huge amount of collaboration

and thousands of people hours, the world saw Flight100 make a successful journey from London to New York.
