How busy are flights normally week of Thanksgiving?
I am booked on VS117 LHR-MIA on Sunday 24 Nov. I know you cannot go by seat reservations but currently only 19 reserved seats on VS117, and 36 reserved seats on inbound flight VS118.
I did check Flightradar (did a Business account free trial) and saw that both VS5 & VS117 operated last year and year before and in November the flights that were cancelled were VS5 not VS117. Isn’t that weird as VS117 is the additional flight whereas VS5 is the original main flight?
I shouldn’t be too worried as last January I flew LHR to Tampa and there was only 57 passengers on the outbound flight.
I know it’s a good 7 months off, but do Virgin cancel flights due to low loads?
They still have quite a few UC reward seats available the entire week.. just that I need to then travel to Orlando the next day for a cruise.
But no reward seats available on Saturday 23 Nov.
The VS5 would get in too late to get the bright line train to Orlando.
