Virgin Atlantic is set to return to Mexico from winter 2025 with three weekly flights from London Heathrow to Cancun.
Launching on October 19, it will be the only direct service between Heathrow and Cancun and will offer seamless onward connections with SkyTeam partner Aeromexico and codeshare partner LATAM to destinations including Mexico City, Santiago, Buenos Aries and Lima.
The route will be operated on the airline’s newest, most fuel-efficient aircraft, the Airbus A350-1000 aircraft, with 16 Upper Class, 56 Premium and 325 Economy Delight, Classic and Light seats as well as the airline’s Upper Class social space, The Booth.
Andres Martinez, Director of the Tourism Promotion Council of Quintana Roo, said: “The addition of this Virgin Atlantic flight from London Heathrow to Cancun will further strengthen Cancun International Airport’s position as one of the most in-demand airports in the world, and we look forward to welcoming new and returning visitors from the United Kingdom to our paradise.”
