Virgin Atlantic has announced plans to withdraw flights between Dubai and London Heathrow.
“Flying between Dubai and London is no longer economically viable due to a combination of external factors,” the airline said in a statement.
Airlive.net quoted Shai Weiss, chief commercial officer for Virgin Atlantic, as saying: “It‘s never an easy decision to withdraw a route, and we’d like to thank our customers and dedicated team in Dubai for their loyalty over the last 12 years. We’ll continue to offer daily flights between Dubai and London Heathrow until March 31, 2019, and will be sad to say goodbye to this fantastic city.”
New bookimgs are still available until the last flight on March 31, 2019.
