Flights on 24th Dec

Has anyone got any idea which flights are running and which cancelled for the 24th Dec???

VS03 is the one I am interested in most!!!!

Why can't anyone make a decsion!!!

Nothing as yet, sorry!
I think with statutory crew rest days now being less of an issue the schedule should be pretty much back to normal. (Touch wood!)

I don't think it's a question of can't make a decision, it's more deciding which decision to make and it is dependent on so many things such as aircraft out of position, crew out of position or perhaps back later than their original schedules and therefore unable to fly because of statutory rest hours.

I know it's frustrating for you but believe me they are weighing up all the factors, some of which change hourly to try and come up with the best outcomes for everyone

They will also be trying to balance the loads of ALL flights accross the network too.

Do they operate your flight when there are several others going to NYC in place of say the once a day flight to BOS or IAD?

I know not a lot of help to you but keep checking the website.

I wonder who is operating this flight on behalf of Virgin?

Arrives JFK at 16:30.

Ex-Singapore Airlines plane, Virgin crew.

Looks like a classic 'wet lease' to me. The VS site says:

VS125 Departs London Heathrow 14:15H arrives New York JFK 16:30H.

This aircraft will be operated by Pullmantur Air on a 747-400 aircraft. As this is a chartered aircraft passengers will be looked after by Pullmantur Air cabin crew and the on board catering will be an all economy service.
