IIRC, the variants went as follows:

Virgin Atlantic: given.
Virgin Sun: charter carrier, now defunct.
Virgin Nigeria: Nigerian domestic.
Virgin America: US domestic.
Virgin Blue: Australian domestic.
Pacific Blue: New Zealand domestic (subsidiary of Virgin Blue)
Polynesian Blue: South Pacific domestic.
V Australia: Australian Longhaul LCC.

That should be pretty much all of them.

BL.

Wow, there's more virgins out there than I thought. I guess I better get to work on that!
