Virgin Atlantic turns 40 this weekend, and to celebrate it is offering a range of special offers on flights – in all cabins – and at Virgin Holidays.

The offers are only valid until Monday evening so you need to move quickly.

The airline is also offering 40% off reward flights until the end of the year – you can read our article on that deal here.
