Virgin Atlantic to return to Tobago next week

Virgin Atlantic is continuing to expand its portfolio of flights to the Caribbean as it relaunches its twice weekly services to Tobago.

From January 29th, the route will resume from London Heathrow to the beautiful island of Tobago, departing every Tuesday and Saturday.

Customers will be welcomed aboard the airline’s Airbus A330-300, offering a selection of experiences across three cabins.

Tobago is famous for its beautiful climate, vibrant party scene and the world’s oldest protected rainforest.

The island is also known for the famous Nylon Pool, a swimming pool in the middle of the ocean.

The in-sea shallow white ground coral pool is located off Pigeon Point and accessible by boat.

With a wide array of activities on offer, Tobago’s warm climate provides the perfect escape for Brits in desperate need of some winter sun.

Juha Jarvinen, chief commercial officer at Virgin Atlantic, commented: “We are thrilled to be able to restart our much-loved services between London Heathrow and Tobago.

“With delicious food, amazing music and stunning views, we know our customers will love exploring this unique island destination.

“The Caribbean is the linchpin of Virgin Atlantic’s leisure portfolio and we’ve recently introduced a number of new destinations to our flying programme, including the Bahamas, St Lucia and St Vincent and the Grenadines.
