| Name origin | The airline launched as Virgin Blue in 2000. The Virgin part comes from Richard Branson's Virgin Group, and Blue came from an open naming competition, as a play on the red livery and the Australian slang for a red-haired man. It became Virgin Australia in 2011. | The sources used for this short profile do not explain the origin of the Ansett Australia name. |
