Virgin Vacations is the inclusive tour arm of Virgin Atlantic Airways, and features land components (hotel packages, tours, etc.) in combination with Virgin Atlantic Air to London. Travelers have the option of choosing complete vacation packages or creating their own personalized holidays.
As can be expected, Virgin Vacations follows the same philosophy set forth by Chairman, Sir Richard Branson when he first started Virgin Atlantic Airways: “Give travelers more comfort, more amenities, and more entertainment at a better value”.
Virgin’s African Air Routes
Virgin Vacations was established in 1994 and the African vacation packages have been added as the African air routes were introduced.
Virgin Atlantic are very specific with regard to the hotel properties they partner with, they assure travelers on their website. “From budget to deluxe, we seek to partner with properties that offer cool, trendy digs, great service and many extra amenities. The relationships we have forged with partner airlines, hotels, car rentals, local sightseeing and activity suppliers, allow us to provide a variety of vacation choices priced to accommodate all travelers and budgets.”
