Save on Virgin Atlantic flights and holidays as part of the 40th birthday celebrations

Virgin Atlantic turns 40 this weekend, and to celebrate it is offering a range of special offers on flights – in all cabins – and at Virgin Holidays.

The offers are only valid until Monday evening so you need to move quickly.

The airline is also offering 40% off reward flights until the end of the year – you can read our article on that deal here.

This is what you can save, for flights departing by 31st December 2024:

• save ‘up to’ £99 on flights in Economy Classic and Economy Delight with code FORTY

• save £199 on flights in Premium with code FORTY

• save £299 on flights in Upper Class with code FORTY

Note tha Economy Light flights are not discounted. This may mean that Economy Classic flights work out at the same price or potentially even cheaper, and come with more benefits.

You will get an automatic £25 discount on all ‘flight and hotel’ packages booked before Monday night.
