San Francisco-based Virgin America will add 4X-daily service from Newark International Airport (EWR) to Los Angeles and San Francisco Nov. 18.
Virgin America director-network planning Adam Green said the new service “will allow us to offer our guests even more choice when traveling from the East Coast with up to 25 flights departing the New York metropolitan area each day. Our transcontinental schedule is also focused on convenience—we have timed the flights so that guests don’t have to travel too early in the morning or too late in the evening.”.
These additional flights bring to 10 the number of daily flights Virgin America operates from Los Angeles and 9X-daily from San Francisco to the New York City area. The airline flies to all three New York City area airports—JFK, La Guardia and EWR.
Virgin America announced July 26 the approval by the airline’s shareholders to the proposed merger with Alaska Air Group. The US Department of Justice antitrust review of the merger and acquisition by Alaska Air Group of Virgin America is scheduled for the fourth quarter of this year.
