on Wednesday announced it will no longer fly between London and Hong Kong, blaming the prolonged closure of Russian airspace.

“We’ve taken the difficult decision to suspend our London Heathrow – Hong Kong services and close our Hong Kong office, after almost 30 years of proudly serving this Asian hub city,” a Virgin Atlantic spokesperson said in a statement to AFP. It said flights between Heathrow and Hong Kong would be approximately 60 minutes longer while the Hong Kong to Heathrow leg would be one hour and 50 minutes more than before the airspace closure.

Virgin Atlantic said it would offer a refund, voucher or the option to rebook on an alternative route to those who bought tickets for the journey from March 2023.
