Correct me if I'm wrong. I haven't had my coffee yet...
The Age article describes this as "One of Virgin Australia's new A330 wide-body aircraft."

Oops obviously the editor missed that.
With the business seats, how do you watch the IFE if the person in front of you reclines?

Is it just me or does our paint job suck?
Still not liking it. Looks like a short term lease interim livery.

Simple question and equally simple answer - NO!!
They are a lazy bunch with no wish to ensure the story is correct. Even if they decide to gather facts by interviewing stakeholders, they only then print/report what they wish, to ensure the story reads/sounds like they want it to - primarily to ensure sales of the copy they have produced.
