About
Virgin Atlantic flight tracking
Virgin Atlantic flies from Heathrow T3 and Manchester, focusing on leisure and transatlantic routes. They operate fewer daily flights than BA but serve key destinations including New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Orlando, and Delhi.
VS transatlantic flights follow similar patterns to BA: evening departures from the UK, landing same evening US time. The difference is Terminal 3 at Heathrow, which is smaller than T5 but can still mean 20+ minutes from landing to arrivals.
Manchester departures are popular for Orlando and Caribbean routes. For families tracking holiday flights, a landing alert confirms they've arrived at the resort destination.
Virgin joined SkyTeam in 2023, meaning Delta codeshares now use VS numbers on some routes.
