Manchester is to become the only UK airport outside London to fly directly to the West Coast of the USA after Virgin Atlantic announced plans to launch a new route.
The carrier will run three flights a week to Las Vegas from June 2, 2024, with tickets going on sale next months. A return economy fare is expected to start from £770 per person.
Flights will operate on Virgin Atlantic’s newest Airbus A350-1000 aircraft and add to its routes to Orlando, New York and Atlanta from Manchester Airport.
