Goodbye Claudia Nine

Virgin Atlantic have bid farewell to their first ever A340-600 aircraft, G-VSHY, otherwise known as Claudia Nine.

The world’s first A340-600 began its stint with the airline on July 27th 2002, giving ten years good service before eventually being replaced as the Virgin airlines look towards a more fuel efficient fleet.

Take a look at some pictures of Claudia Nine in all her glory. Did you ever fly on her? We’d love to hear some of your fond memories.

Claudia Nine attracts the crowds on her launch day back in 2002...

...where she was unveiled by Richard Branson and Claudia Schiffer...

To book yourself a flight on one of the new aircrafts, head over to the Virgin Atlantic website.
