Australia's Capital Territory Gains First International Service
Virgin Australia has announced the launch of its first-ever international service from Canberra, with direct flights to Bali starting on June 22, 2026. The airline will operate three weekly return flights on the route using Boeing 737-800 aircraft, adding more than 40,000 seats annually between Canberra and Bali. The new route marks a significant expansion of connectivity for Australia’s capital territory and complements Virgin Australia’s existing Bali network. The service is scheduled to run seasonally from April 2026 through January 2027, with the airline indicating it may increase frequency during busy periods. This development was first reported by AeroTime.
