Disney World’s Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Animal Kingdom will reopen July 11th while Epcot and Hollywood Studios will reopen on July 15th, so Virgin Atlantic’s Orlando flights should resume just a few days after the parks reopen.
New Virgin Atlantic Health and Safety Measures
Virgin Atlantic says new health and safety measures will be in place including limiting the number of guests checking in at one time, reducing the number of security lanes, and placing social distancing markers in queue areas. Meticulous cleaning will be conducted in all common areas including counters, self-service kiosks, and aircraft.
Virgin Atlantic will be conducting health screenings including temperature checks of its passengers and leaving empty seats between parties whenever possible. They’ll also be revising their food and drink service and masks will be required at all times while onboard. Virgin Airlines will be supplying each passenger with a “Health Pack” equipped with medical-grade masks, surface wipes, and hand gel.
It is important to keep in mind that at this time, all non-essential international travel is discouraged and several restrictions are in place for those traveling internationally. You can read more about this here.
