| Name origin | The sources used for this short profile do not explain the origin of the AB Airlines name. | The airline was first planned as British Atlantic Airways and was renamed Virgin Atlantic Airways soon after, when Richard Branson's Virgin brand came on board. Wikipedia does not record why the founders chose the new name beyond that change, and the Virgin name itself belongs to Branson's wider group. |
