Virgin Atlantic returns to Mexico with new Cancun service

Virgin Atlantic will resume its operations to Mexico next year, with the airline launching a new service to Cancun on October 19, 2025.

The route will be the only direct service between London Heathrow and Cancun, with passengers being able to connect with SkyTeam partner Aeromexico and codeshare partner LATAM to destinations in Central and Latin America including Mexico City, Santiago, Buenos Aries and Lima. 

We’re delighted to be returning to Cancun, offering customers a new destination for some winter sun. Cancun has an amazing nightlife and dining scene, dreamy sandy beaches, plus it’s the perfect gateway to Mayan ruins and adventure travel in the region,” said Juha Jarvinen, chief commercial offer at Virgin Atlantic.

Jarvinen added: “Our new route also offers increased connectivity to the region with our codeshare partner LATAM and SkyTeam partner Aeromexico. We can’t wait for more of our customers to enjoy Virgin Atlantic’s trademark fiesta and flair, on their way to Mexico.” 

The new service will be operated by the airline’s A350-1000 aircraft and will operate three-times weekly.
