The agreement will allow easyJet to connect its destinations in Europe and the UK with Virgin's in the US.
Jersey to New York is one of the connecting destinations.
There will be daily connections from Edinburgh, Manchester, and Belfast in the summer of 2022.
Juha Jarvinen, chief commercial officer at Virgin Atlantic, said that they were delighted to be welcoming easyJet customers on their flights.
There is a huge demand for people to get away on holiday whether to the Caribbean for a relaxing sunny break or the US for a city tour. Customers from across the UK and Europe can now connect onto Virgin Atlantic destinations, including New York, Barbados, and Orlando, thanks to the new partnership with Worldwide by easyJet.
easyJet is committed to making travel as easy as possible as well as providing great value and more choice for their customers when they travel, said the chief commercial officer. We are very excited to be working with Virgin Atlantic to give our customers even more opportunities to connect across our European network onto North America.
We are confident that the additions to our Worldwide service will prove popular with those looking for a seamless way to connect between Europe and North America, and we look forward to taking customers on their long-awaited holidays.
Thanks to our reputation for great value fares, customer service and strong positions at Europe's leading airports, we have been delighted with the appetite of partner airlines to expand across our network. We are focused on offering our unique connections service at more airports.
The managing director of Manchester Airport said it was great to see easyJet and Virgin Atlantic announce their partnership.
It will open up more choice and flexibility for passengers who want to travel long haul. Since the start of the Pandemic, the security of all our passengers and staff has been our number one priority, as we connect people across the globe.
Providing passengers with flexibility and choice is a key part of the VINCI Airports strategy. The new partnership between easyJet and Virgin Atlantic will connect more people to more destinations.
Gordon Dewar, chief executive of Edinburgh airport said that making safe travel easier is something they are supportive of and that the new Worldwide partnership will allow passengers to easily access a range of long-haul destinations.
The economic recovery of Scotland and the UK will be helped by aviation and we want to make people aware of the benefits of sustainable travel.
