Virgin Atlantic has announced its return to Cape Town from 5th November 2022 with a new daily service.
The service will operate on a Boeing 787-9 with fares starting from £711 economy return.
Passengers can choose from three classes – Upper Class, Premium and Economy – each offering different experiences for customers as well as the airline’s world-famous social space.
The new winter service runs until 24th March 2022 and will complement the existing year-round daily service to Johannesburg.
Popular must-visits in Cape Town include Robben Island, home to the prison where Nelson Mandela was held, now a living museum.
Other attractions include riding the cable cars to Table Mountain’s flat top and Cape Winelands, the country’s top region for wine tasting tours.
Juha Jarvinen, Chief Commercial Officer at Virgin Atlantic commented: “We’re incredibly excited to return to the fabulous city of Cape Town with daily services from November.
“Although a little later than we’d have liked due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the move reflects the fact that travel is recovering and global demand for holidays to sunny, premium destinations is returning at pace.
“We’re expecting a high proportion of leisure travellers on this route who will rightly be taking advantage of the winter sun, exploring the world-renowned wine regions and soaking up the rich culture this incredible country has to offer.”
