so i am sure they know what flights there own company is operating. Just done a mock booking and tested it. If i pop my departure day in i can book a ticket on that flight i am going on. If i select Olrando etc it is showing no flights available from Gatwick which would be true. So looks like this A330 VS43 in October is still going ahead.
Indeed. Additionally, if it is no longer operating from LGW then they are obliged to book you onto an alternative flight and inform you of the change of plan.
For ease of mind, I've just done a dummy booking on the VS website and the VS043 from LGW is showing as bookable for 4th and 7th October, albeit with no Y availability on the 4th.
Until VS/Virgin Holidays tell you differently, I agree that you should continue to work on the basis that your LGW-LAS flight is going ahead as planned. Until then, as I'm also due to fly to the US late-September, let's hope for now the situation improves sufficiently for our trips to still go ahead.
