Another destination from Heathrow - looks very appealing at the moment

I thought this was already known about?

Kinda thought that but just on twitter this morning

It was originally announced back in November 2020. I guess VS are just publicising it a bit more.

Ahh makes a lot of sense really, I did think it had gone very quiet on this one.

Annoyingly, I couldn't see on the website what the two days are they are flying there.

It looks to be Sundays and Wednesdays. It's a double drop route via Antigua both ways.

Ah so not much has really changed then. Wasn't UVF a double drop before that got killed?

I do like this format, it's an efficient way of offering a second route without having to add another plane, crew and load factor to things.

Also means the crew can stay in Antigua and do a St Vincent shuttle before an eventual return to LHR, I presume.
