In early 1984 Richard Branson was contacted by an Anglo-American lawyer with a proposal for involvement in a new
airline called British Atlantic. Richard decided it was time for Virgin to diversify...
The airline was renamed Virgin Atlantic Airways and on June 22nd 1984 Virgin's inaugural flight to Newark
took off. The airline's policy was simple 'to provide all classes of traveller with the highest quality
travel at the lowest cost' and this is a philosophy that is still in place today.
Following the creation of the airline, Virgin Holidays was started in 1985. It became operational in
January 1986 with a view to selling seats on the new Virgin Atlantic routes to New York, Orlando and Miami.
