Video Blog: Around the world in 8 days by Richard Branson Virgin Airlines

Virgin group Chairman Richard Branson went around the world in 8 days showcasing his airline's world coverage with the launch of V Australia's flights to the United States. Virgin is the only airline group that offers a traveller the ability to circumnavigate the world on one airline brand.

He documented the events with a video blog and we can see the flair, pomp and showmanship he is renowned for, and there is no taking away from the peak Virgin has achieved today, considering its humble start with a second-hand Boeing 747 25 years ago.
