why has virgin stopped flights to St lucia and will they return?
They stopped in Spring of last year - was supposed to be June but with Covid knocking of demand the actual last flight was earlier. The reason wasn't overly clear but the below suggested something to do with the agreement with the airport/St. Lucia government in terms of subsidies. My understanding is that a lot of the caribbean islands have some similar kind sof agreement in place, but after not reaching an agreement VS pulled the route. I wouuld have said VS would likely routine as soon as the cost:benefit says so e.g. an agreement on the subsidy can be made, but following this TUI has picked up the same route (ignoring Covid preventing these flights to operate yet). This makes it unlikely IMHO to return on VS - perhaps confirmed by VS announcing a new route to St. Vincent also in the Caribbean.
