Both destinations will be reinstated next week, while from April, capacity to New York, San Francisco and Atlanta is also increasing.

In April, a third daily service to Los Angeles will commence, with Virgin serving the Californian city “more than any other airline”. Virgin will operate Orlando flights from Heathrow, Manchester, Edinburgh and Belfast, which it said would be more than any other carrier.   

The airline said the reinstatement followed “renewed customer confidence and a strong uptick in bookings, which are up 50% year on year”.
