Virgin Holidays issues dedicated Manchester brochure
Virgin Holidays is launching a dedicated brochure for Manchester departures to Florida and the Caribbean.
The operator has tied up with bmi to offer the airline’s new Caribbean flights from Manchester to Barbados, Antigua and St Lucia.
The programme also features Jamaica using twice weekly Air Jamaica services.
The announcement follows an extension to Virgin Atlantic’s Manchester-Orlando service after demand from Virgin Holidays prompted the airline to add additional flights over Christmas and Easter, 2005.
The 84-page Manchester to the Caribbean and Florida brochure offers direct scheduled flights from Manchester without any flight supplements. The operator is also offering free car parking for a week at the airport.
Prices start at £549 per person for seven nights in Barbados including transfers.
Virgin Holidays managing director Amanda Wills said: “It is important that we grow our business not only in the South, but for our customers in the North too. We are confident that our new flights with bmi will be a popular choice for customers travelling from the North.”
