Well yesterday Delta (our Virgin flights were with Delta) changed their flight schedule and altered our connecting flight time from MPS to MCO without telling us. We would miss this flight as it departed before our flight landed.

Called Virgin and they apologised and moved us to direct Virgin flights both ways free of charge. I was stunned. Have not seen any direct flights under £800pp our whole time searching. There flights would have cost us £8500.

Happy is an understatement! Well done and thank you Virgin.👏🎉
we always fly indirect & have had it changed to direct or better more expensive flights many times, they have to get you there so sometimes it works in your favour

It depends what you class as cheap/reasonably priced ! There are certainly some cheap last minute prices with tui if you go hand luggage only but depends also where you want to fly from and when.

We are waiting to book for august 2023, I am very anxious about what the pricing will be like. We generally fly from Manchester but we are considering driving to another airport if the price is right.
