Virgin Galactic Targets 150 Annual Flights with Delta Class Fleet Expansion
Virgin Galactic (SPCE) has announced a strategic shift in its operational roadmap, aiming to increase flight capacity to 150 missions per year. This expansion is tied to the deployment of the new Delta class fleet, which marks a transition from manufacturing-focused milestones to commercial spaceline operations. The company successfully delivered 'Apeiron,' the lead spaceship of the Delta class fleet, to Spaceport America in late October. Management indicated that this delivery represents a critical handoff between the manufacturing and operations teams, setting the stage for the anticipated commencement of commercial services in early Q2 2027.
