Flexible booking options remain
Virgin Atlantic has extended its policy of unlimited free date and flight changes for new bookings, giving further flexibility to customers to support future travel plans. The updated flexible booking policy enables Virgin Atlantic customers to make a new holiday or flight-only booking for travel up to 31 December 2022, to make as many changes as necessary to their travel dates, origin or destination, with the change fees waived, as well as one free name change.
In addition, the rebooking horizon, the date by which rescheduled travel can be completed, has been extended by eight months for all new and existing bookings – until 31 December 2023 – giving a broader window of time to reschedule plans if needed.
