Net Registry seem to be hosting the domain, but the owner is:

This name is listed in the AUNIC registry:

    Object-Type: DOMAIN
    Organization-Name: WWW.VIRGINAIRLINES.COM.AU PTY LTD
    Organization-ACN: 069 433 781
    Organization-Postal: C/O Solicitor Peter Woods & Assosiates Suite L,
Level 14 44 Market Street Sydney NSW 2000
    Organization-Country-Code: AU
    Domain-Name: virginairlines.com.au
    Admin-Contact: (SSP3-AU)
    Tech-Contact: (LB305-AU) 
    Handle: VIRGINAIRLINES-COM-AU-DOM
    Created: 2-Dec-1999
    Updated: 2-Dec-1999

Now do a search on the ACN the domain is related to.  It has records
dating back to 1995:

16/05/1995  410A Application For Reservation of a Name of a New Australian
Company

If that's a case of cyber squatting, I want them to fill in my lotto
tickets for the next 5 years too!! :)

There is a great deal of information thrown around which is quick to sling
mud in whatever direction.  A little research often shows a completely
different story.

Cheers
Craig
