Virgin Atlantic Spreads Wings to Maldives and Turks & Caicos Islands

Virgin Atlantic will launch scheduled flights to the idyllic islands of the Maldives as well as Turks & Caicos, offering holidaymakers the opportunity to escape to their very own slice of utopia and explore the most beautiful beaches and finest snorkelling and scuba diving found anywhere in the world.

Virgin Atlantic will launch a winter seasonal three-times weekly service to the Maldives from London Heathrow on 22 October 2023. On 15 November 2023, it will also launch a year-round twice weekly service to the Turks & Caicos from London Heathrow. Both routes will be operated with a Boeing 787-9 offering 31 Upper Class seats, 35 Premium seats and 192 Economy Delight, Classic and Light seats.

With crystal white sands and sheltered lagoons, the Maldives redefines paradise, in what is undoubtedly one of the most idyllic holiday destinations, offering luxurious relaxation and adventure. Travellers looking to treat themselves can experience world-class diving, surfing, fishing, kayaking and with over 1,000 coral islands to enjoy, there's no shortage of things to see or do.

Elsewhere, the stunning islands of the Turks & Caicos offer some of the most pristine white sand beaches, surrounded by the world’s clearest turquoise waters. Boasting an expansive barrier reef, home to vibrant coral, dolphins, turtles, stingrays and more, the islands make for a breath-taking playground for snorkelling and diving.

Turks & Caicos is the latest addition to Virgin Atlantic's Caribbean portfolio which follows new flying to the Bahamas in December 2021, St Vincent and the Grenadines in October 2021 and our highly anticipated return to St Lucia.
