Virgin Atlantic to Launch New Service to The Bahamas

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - September 15, 2021

The United Kingdom’s Virgin Atlantic is set to launch new service to The Bahamas. 

The new flights will operate between London Heathrow and Nassau’s Lynden Pindling International Airport twice each week, with service kicking off on Nov. 20. 

Flights are already on sale, according to the carrier. 

It’s part of a broader Caribbean expansion for Virgin, according to Chief Commercial Officer Juha Jarvinen.

Virgin is currently flying to Caribbean destinations including Barbados, Antigua, Jamaica and Grenada, with plans to restart Havana and Tobago in the next few months. 

“We look forward to launching new services to the Bahamas,” Jarvinen said.
