# Virgin Australia

> Virgin Australia (IATA VA, ICAO VOZ, ASX:VGN) is Australia's second-largest airline group, founded in 2000 and headquartered in Brisbane, operating a domestic and short-haul international network alongside charter and cargo services, with the 13-million-member Velocity Frequent Flyer loyalty program. **Virgin Australia publishes no public API, no developer portal, no API reference and no machine-readable contract of any kind.** This file is generated by API Evangelist from the catalog record at all/virgin-australia; it is not published by Virgin Australia.

## API posture

- **Public API:** none. Verified 2026-07-28. `developer.`, `developers.`, `api.`, `apis.` and `docs.virginaustralia.com` do not resolve (NXDOMAIN). `/developers`, `/api`, `/api-docs`, `/openapi.json`, `/swagger.json`, `/llms.txt` and every `/.well-known/` document return 404. `portal.virginaustralia.com` is an F5 BIG-IP corporate SSO gateway, not a developer portal. No GitHub organization exists.
- **Access model:** accredited travel agents only, at Virgin Australia's absolute discretion. No self-serve tier, no sandbox, no API key, no rate-limit table — none of those concepts exist here.
- **Distribution:** GDS-intermediated. Virgin Australia content reaches travel agents through Amadeus, Sabre and Travelport/Galileo. The de facto integration contract is GDS cryptic-entry syntax plus a Virgin Australia account code, not an API.
- **NDC:** committed, not shipped. Sabre was named preferred NDC IT technology provider on 2023-10-31; the Amadeus agreement covers EDIFACT "and, in the future, NDC channels." No Virgin Australia NDC endpoint, schema version or IATA certification level is published.
- **Agent surface:** the Virgin Australia app in ChatGPT (launched 2026-06-10, an Australian airline first) searches cash fares, Points + Pay and Velocity Reward Seats. By its own terms it does "not process payments; create, amend or cancel bookings; confirm final pricing, fare availability or fare conditions; or make binding commitments." Its underlying interface is not documented and is not offered to third parties.

## Not available

There is no OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL schema, Postman collection, SDK, CLI, MCP server, sandbox, changelog, status page, deprecation policy, security.txt, trust center or published vulnerability disclosure program for Virgin Australia. Third parties who need Virgin Australia flight status or schedules buy it from aggregators (AirLabs, Cirium, FlightAware, OAG) who source it from operational feeds, not from Virgin Australia developer credentials. Third parties who need to sell Virgin Australia seats do so through a GDS.
