Virgin America Before Alaska Took Over

I just happened to come across this shot while looking for something else. It was a Virgin America A320. Virgin America did a reasonable job of building a profile on the west coast before they were swallowed up by Alaska. Initially their fleet was added to Alaska’s, but it wasn’t too long before Alaska disposed of the Airbus planes to focus on their Boeing fleet. They were good looking jets, and I flew inside one once after the merger where the interior finish certainly marked them as a bit different to the norm. I just figured I’d share this shot as a memory of something long gone.
