Virgin Blue restructure to stimulate change at home, as Qantas and Tiger sharpen their attack

Virgin Blue Group CEO, John Borghetti, on 16-Aug-2010, announced the first phase of the group’s network review aimed at “delivering increased competition and capturing growth opportunities”, including Pacific Blue's exit from the New Zealand domestic market. The move is probably a good indicator of where the Virgin Blue Group will be heading in coming months, as it develops into a more corporate entity under the new leadership.
