By: Caribbean Journal Staff - June 22, 2020

Virgin Atlantic will be returning to the Caribbean, the carrier announced. 

On Aug. 1, Virgin will resume flying from London Heathrow to Barbados, kicking off a Caribbean return that will continue in October. 

In October, Virgin Atlantic will be resuming flights to Montego Bay, Antigua, Grenada And Tobago (via Antigua). 

That’s along with a resumption of flight service from Manchester to Barbados in October. 

“As countries around the world begin to relax travel restrictions, we look forward to welcoming our customers back onboard and flying them safely to many destinations across our network,” said Juha Jarvinen, Chief Commercial Officer at Virgin Atlantic. 

The carrier says it is implementing new measures both at the airport and onboard “to ensure the health and safety of our customers and our people.”
