VS238 left at around 4 pm and landed at 12.30 pm +1 in HKG.
VS239 had weird times, leaving at (I think) 2.15 pm and landing at around 7 pm LHR.

Good times indeed. Hopefully, there will be demand in the future, when this country is more financially stable when Virgin will decide to reinstate them. I have heard seen that they are introducing Cancun from LGW with a 744 and Vancouver with a 343 this year, but dropping Kingston, is that right??!

What ever happened to 372/3 to Mauritius too??!!??!! ?|

Good stuff :), thank you very much.

Did MRU finish with VS25/26 and 238/239 simply down to demand and the GFC??

Thanks for the info Tinkerbelle. It's a shame really, but i suppose this is Virgin speculating to accumulate. Good for them. Hopefully they'll introduce some more new destinations in the not too distant future, maybe with the 346 (it's the best a/cft they have).

Hopefully from time to time they'll get to use the 346's on the CUN and YVR rotations too :D. Watch this space!!!
