Virgin Atlantic permanently suspends flights to Israel May 8, 2025
Airline becomes third to abandon the racist occupation - UK media ignores

Virgin Atlantic has permanently cancelled its flights to Israel's Tel Aviv amid the risks associated with retaliation from Israel's neighbours for the Zionist regime's bombing attacks and its genocide in Gaza.

The airline had initially planned to resume flights to Tel Aviv in October this year but has now permanently ended operations to Israel, following the path taken by Turkish Airlines and Pegasus Airlines, which have also announced the end of their flights to Israel.

A statement from Virgin Atlantic reads:
After careful consideration, we have taken the difficult decision to cancel our services between London Heathrow and Tel Aviv.
The decision appears to have been entirely ignored by 'mainstream' UK news media.
