Hi, I have been wanting to get a price online but for some reason I cant seem to get quotes with Virgin for Mexico, it tells you to call them, is there a reason for this as I would like to take advantage of the 3% Quidco offer! Many thanks

i had similar problems when booking multi stop US holidays through virgin,if you fly to a place that virgin fly direct to then there is no problem but if you are flying somewhere that needs an internal flight then it has to be done over the phone.in these types of cases they will still add the same discount as when booking online.

As for the booking in advance i booked in june for next september in orlando,some places are so popular that you need to book early.
the flight i have booked is nearly full already when looking at booking online and prices have rocketed compared to what i paid.so it does not always pay to leave until last minute.

I don't think that Virgin fly direct to Cancun. When I went to Cancun, people who booked with Virgin had to stop overnight in Miami.

Virgin don't fly direct to Cancun, it is via Miami or somewhere else, sorry can't remember where. We know this because we've just booked our holiday for next July to Cancun and have booked the hotel and flights seperately. We really didn't want an indirect flight so booked on BA, who go direct to Cancun 3 times per week.

you can connect via MCO with virgin from LGW or on the continental codeshare flights via newark from several uk airports.

thanks for the info i was not aware BA went direct as when i have searched it either comes up indirect or travelling on charter airlines.

I know.
I'm just reminding anyone considering a holiday in Mexico that the country's rapidly deteriorating drugs war might be a factor in their
decision,particularly after the recent murders in Acapulco.
