Because they think they have some brand reputation that warrants the extra (they don't).

Some people are die-hard Virgin fans and will pay whatever too.

Supply and demand. If their fights are full, the prices go up.

If you really want a Virgin Holiday, we went in to store armed with sheets and printouts of various competitor prices, and they found a holiday for the same prices.

I booked our holiday for May “19 in March’18.
Virgin were the cheapest. The same holiday is currently £2000 more expensive

It pays to shop around.
