Customers with existing bookings are being contacted to be offered refunds or alternative flights with another airline, it said.
A Virgin spokesperson added: “As we continue to focus on optimising our network, we regularly review the destinations we fly to.
“As part of this, we’ve made the decision to increase our frequencies to Antigua, Barbados and Cape Town next year, and to sadly suspend operations to The Bahamas and Turks and Caicos.
“We’re very sorry for the disappointment caused to our customers flying to The Bahamas and Turks and Caicos and anyone booked to travel on these routes from February 24 and February 22 respectively will be contacted with their options.”
Virgin flies three times a week to the Bahamas and twice weekly to Turks and Caicos. It will increase its service to Antigua from once a week to four flights a week from 28 October 2024 until the end of April and its Barbados service will increase from seven to 10 flights a week, also from 28 October.
At the same time, Virgin will extend its seasonal service to Cape Town by a month, to 30 April. (TRAVELGOSSIP)

Julien Alfred is the DEAL. It would’ve been a bad look for Moma Rocket in her final Olympics if she didn’t pulled out, so she did the right thing. Remembered what she did to Shericka? She might also pull out the 200m. I’ve been telling you guys about this girl for some time now, progress, progress, progress.
Congratulation St Lucia and your star athlete Ms Alfred, world indoor gold and Olympics goal in just a few months and it’s just the beginning.
I have always like the deportment of virgin Atlantic owner and CEO, but this one is in support of the markets to prop up the racist D A apartheid whites party in power now under a puppet stooge called Cyril ramaphosa who sold out the people of south Africa, and prevent the black people from getting back their parents lands which 90% of the lands of south Africa is held by 10% white people, and they set up Cyril ramaphosa from since Mandela was at prison to go talk to him to allow white people to get their monies move to foreign banks and stock market since there was sanctions against apartheid beneficiaries. So these white businesses are shoring up the market for Oppenheimer and Stellenbosch, you should see how south Africa currency was emotional if they had only choose Julius malema and MK party who advocate for the return of the black people properties.
