Virgin Holidays will be key to what happens to the Glasgow service. Initially I think we might resume with an A332, but what happens for 2021 is pure guesswork at the moment. One thing for sure, our stored 744 will be departing on a one way trip to Kemble or St. Athan (other scrappies are available).
:lol: :lol: Indeed there are Fergus.Tow it down to the yard in Renfrew by the Clydeside,the one that goes up in flames annually.Be much cheaper.
Scrappy in Renfrew has closed due to new road to be built.

Seems Branson will be selling a portion of his stake in Virgin Galactic to prop up Virgin Atlantic, holidays and perhaps Australia.

Politics of it all aside I think we all want to see Virgin survive this as a now crucial operator at GLA nowadays.

Summer 2020 still showing as 747 with A332 operating winter, there is a little confusion over summer 2021 however as Wednesday shows 747 and Saturday A332, with no Friday flight, however Virgin Holidays show Friday and Saturday flights

ThePointsGuy seems to suggest seasonal.

I'd be surprised to see any ops this summer actually happen
