A VIRGIN BLUE 737 is sitting on the ramp near Jimsair. I am thinking maybe a delivery flight? Please somebody get pictures of this rare beauty here at SAN!

Really cool to see an Aloha, Hawaiian and Virgin Blue simultaneously this morning at SAN. Finally felt like I lived on the Pacific Rim! Hope it's a future sign of things to come. SAN is not really known for delivery flight stops, but who knows?

You won't do because VOZ doesn't show up. I have a contact at VOZ and will find out some details for you all.

It wasn't a new build delivery flight though, I know that for sure.

Was it possibly coming or going from having LiveTV installed in MCO?

I saw it come in last night. I was like WHOA!

Does anyone know if it is still there right now? I don't work until 3pm today. If it is there, I will definitely get some pics.

Wow! How strange... Probably the 2nd most interesting flight into SAN this year after the JAL 747 in March... There was a thread a few months back talking about a Air Luxor A330 at SAN, I'm not sure if that was 2006 or December 2005...

Either way, cool to see and I'd love to see some pics!

Yeah I saw it depart as I was parking. Darn, could have gotten a good shot of it too.

I saw it at KOA on 10/24. I assumed it was a delivery flight. Thanks for the info.

Talk about a rare bird at KOA!

New builds usually go through Lihue. Look.
