"Virgin boss Richard Branson says he hopes to have his airline flying between America and Australia from next year.
The UK billionaire jetted into Australia this week to attend the V Festival, which he created.
Speaking at the Sydney leg of the festival, Sir Richard said he hoped to get the flights off the ground soon.
"By next year there may even be an airline with V in it coming from America down here," he told reporters.
"Hopefully if bands want to come from the UK they can come on Virgin and maybe next year if bands want to come from America they'll be able to come on Virgin as well."
The 58-year-old entrepreneur said the details weren't finalised but "hopefully we'll get all the boxes ticked very soon".
Sir Richard said he was not interested in getting back into the record business but wanted to focus on light music.
"It's far tougher these days than it was 25 years ago and actually it's not quite as much fun," he said.
"I think with downloading, people expecting to get their music for free, ipods etc, running a music company hasn't got the same enticements," he said.
"From Virgin's point of view - music festival is the way to go."
