Virgin flights from Manchester

[Alza]

Yep, just contacted them about December flights and this is their reply. “ If a customer is booked
to travel in the coming months, there’s no need to contact the customer centre right now If their flight is cancelled or changed, we will notify
all affected customers”
They also said “ From Manchester, we plan to return flying to the following destinations (subject to change and dependant on travel restrictions):

In October we plan to resume flying to Orlando (subject to CDC approval*) and Barbados and New York”

My flight for the 15th of November is still showing as going and you can still book seats on the flight.

Hmmm. I doubt that people will be booking in numbers sufficient to make any difference to their cash flow but I guess if one was cynical one might say that by not confirming any cancellations they do not have to start refunding those months... I’m being positive and thinking that Virgin want to get going as soon as they are able.

If i understand correctly, aren't they lifting restrictions as you were required to fly to an airport where they had some kind of covid screening, Orlando wasn't one of them? insidethemagic/2020/09/d...rictions-rwb1/

I think they then added another 5 airports and MCO was one of the 5.

Maybe? I didn't read too much into it as I'm not flying there until next December.

Maybe I'm making it up but I think I read it somewhere, too many facts and figures run through my mind, no wonder I don't know what day it is half the time. 🤔

I believe if they can fly people to Orlando in November and December from Manchester they are. They moved us to the new aircraft at Christmas. Doubt we will be going but flight is full so if they can fly they will definitely be putting it on.

I don't know what day or month it is half the time either. Covid brain.

It looks there is a Good chance now. Fingers crossed for you.
