NEW YORK, June 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Virgin America, the California-based airl=
ine, today celebrates the launch of its first international city and sets i=
t sights on its next new destination. Today, the airline toasts its Toronto=
service on a celebrated flight from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX=
)-San Francisco International Airport (SFO)-Toronto Pearson International A=
irport (YYZ). Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger joins Virgin Group Founder Sir=
Richard Branson onboard the LAX-SFO leg, and via WiFi from 35,000 feet ove=
r the California coast, the two announce the airline's intent to serve a ne=
w destination: Mexico. Upon touchdown at SFO, San Francisco Mayor Gavin New=
som welcomes Sir Richard, the Governor and other guests. The SFO-YYZ flight=
then continues on to cross the border in style with Toronto native (and th=
e #1 artist in North America), Drake, hosting a mile high party en route. A=
lthough the airline's service begins June 23, the celebrated flight takes p=
lace on June 29 due to G8/G20 events.

Despite missing the G8/G20, Virgin America's Toronto launch may just cause =
its own international incident. Some of the airline's first Toronto guests =
will enjoy cocktails, music and a mile high party under the airline's signa=
ture moodlighting as they cross the border in style. Celebs taking part in =
the celebration include Cheryl Burke, Stacy Keibler, Eric Roberts and and G=
illes Marini. Upon touchdown of Virgin America's "Air Drake" in Toronto, fl=
ight guests including Drake fans who scored a fly-away trip to the West Coa=
st and a seat for one of the hottest tickets in the skies, will receive an =
international welcome with a Virgin twist: a bottle-popping arrival recepti=
on on the tarmac. Flight guests will mingle with Toronto VIPs and toast the=
new service on touch-down with Mumm Napa=AE Sparkling Wine from California=
's Napa Valley.
