Delta Air Lines and Virgin Australia have been working together to support travel between Australia and North America since the launch of their trans-Pacific joint venture in 2011. Together, the two airlines have increased competition on the all-important trans-Pacific routes and facilitate travel to around 200 destinations across North America, enabling enhanced trade and tourism between the two regions.

This is a rare opportunity to hear from two renowned business leaders at the forefront of the global travel industry about the changing dynamics of aviation and trade between the U.S. and Australia and the opportunities that lie ahead.
