PRESS: Virgin To Shut Down Little Red Service - BBC

7th Oct 2014 05:39

LONDON (Alliance News) - Virgin Atlantic Airways Ltd is to stop running its Little Red domestic service in the UK next year, the BBC reported on Monday.

Flights operated by Little Red, launched in 2013 in an attempt to challenge British Airways, part of International Consolidated Airlines Group SA, between London and Manchester will stop in March, with flights to Edinburgh and Aberdeen to end in September 2015.

The service was launched with the aim of helping long-haul Virgin customers connect with other parts of the UK, but Virgin said most passengers are using it as a standalone service.
