Virgin Atlantic in short
Virgin Atlantic is the UK’s long-haul specialist: its network is built on transatlantic routes from London Heathrow, with additional flying from Manchester. The fleet of A350s, A330neos and 787s makes Virgin departures easy to spot on the radar: big aircraft heading west.
Tracking a Virgin flight across the Atlantic
A Virgin departure to the US East Coast takes seven to eight hours. Follow the climb-out on the radar, and use the destination airport’s local time when planning a pickup. Inbound, the aircraft appears over Ireland with about an hour to run to Heathrow.
Frequently asked questions
Can I track codeshare flights? Track the operating VS number. A partner code on the ticket may hide it; the departure board shows both.
Does Virgin fly short-haul? No: the network is long-haul.
