Virgin Australia services between Sydney and Melbourne and Doha (VA1-2 and VA7-8), operated by Qatar Airways, have resumed today.  

Guests planning to travel to, or transit through, the region should continue to monitor the Australian Government's Smartraveller website for the latest travel advice and make decisions about their travel plans accordingly. 

Virgin Australia services between Brisbane and Perth and Doha (VA15-16 and VA21-22), operated by Qatar Airways, are planned to resume from 15 September 2026. 

We continue to offer flexibility for guests who may wish to change their travel plans. Guests with bookings made before 30 April 2026 for departures up to 15 September 2026 can change their flights to another travel date before 31 October 2026 with the change fee waived (fare difference may apply). Guests may also choose to cancel their booking and retain the value of their ticket as a travel credit for use before 31 March 2027.
