Virgin Atlantic plans to cut its carbon emissions

Virgin flights VS457 and VS458 will resume between Heathrow and Tel Aviv this week

Flybe and Virgin Atlantic have extended their commercial arrangements to ensure regional travellers from Edinburgh and Aberdeen can now connect with the long-haul flights via Heathrow

The new Flybe codeshare flights to London Heathrow will operate from March 26, offering four services per day from Edinburgh, and up to three services per day from Aberdeen.

The agreement will mean customers can connect between Flybe and Virgin Atlantic with a single check in and bag drop.

It will also open up a number of new destinations for Scottish travellers, and help boost inbound tourism and investment.
