When they made the changes (last week I believe) they did have Direct flight on VA (flight only), the outbound flight had the same times as what it was from LGW, however the return flight was later.

Like you say hopefully more changes over the coming weeks, would just nice to know though. Like I said before if they are still selling seats you would hope existing customers would be transferred over first, but who knows!

Unless I am completely missing something.
I've been looking at the website too this morning and it's bizarre. There is a big gap in flights for sale between 20th March - 27th March. There are 2 direct flights actually 'scheduled' for 24th March though (VS91 & VS135) - just not on sale at the moment

This I totally agree with, and said as much last week, it's all well and good Virgin getting excited at the launch of summer 2021 flights but please let’s get the current ones Who are booked and have uncertainty sorted and transferred first.

Hope it all get sorted for you and you get a good result, I genuinely don’t believe my August flight will go ahead but none of this is helping my greying hair

I hope this happens, as are seats are miles seats and the return is PE, don’t want to loose them

That was me... sorry I confused things there. We already had indirect flights for the return leg booked MCO-JFK-LGW, the last leg has now been changed to LHR.

I am flying on 8th July and just noticed some changes. My seats have disappeared and I can't rebook any seats, and the passenger status says 'Contact delta' even though it's VA. The return flight still says 747 and seats, both flights still say LGW. Wondering if it's about to be cancelled

My flights 4th and our ED seats have disappeared for outbound too. Says “schedule change” but apart from seats nothing else actually changed. Inbound PE bubble seats still showing

Sent them a WhatsApp to try and find out what's going on. Our seats were ED too outbound. Unless they are trying to fit people on the new plane and we've lost our ED seats

I have just checked my Virgin Atlantic app. Our flights for Feb 2021 have just been updated to Heathrow. Virgin Holidays app hasn't updated yet.
