Virgin Atlantic’s first flight connecting Edinburgh and Orlando will take off for the first time on 30 March.
Operating on an Airbus 330-300, it operates twice weekly.
As the gateway to the highlands, the new service from Edinburgh Airport will provide travellers from Florida with a direct link to Scotland’s historic capital.
Juha Jarvinen, Chief Commercial Officer at Virgin Atlantic, said; “Commencing flights from Edinburgh to Orlando marks an exciting new chapter for Virgin Atlantic and we couldn’t be happier to launch our second route from our new home in Scotland.
Virgin launched direct service to Barbados last year.
“Orlando is the theme park capital of the world and the heartland of Virgin Atlantic’s leisure program. I know our Scottish customers will love exploring the likes of Walt Disney World and Universal Studios alongside the array of experiences Orlando has to offer. “
