Jon Harding, General Manager International & Distribution, Virgin Atlantic, says: “We have always been and remain committed to travel agencies who form an essential part of our multi-channel distribution strategy. We are delighted to announce this agreement with Amadeus and look forward to building on the close working relationship we enjoy with them.”
