Boston makes an excellent weekend city break. Take the Friday afternoon Virgin Atlantic flight from Heathrow to Boston and you’ll be there in time for dinner. Boston is quite compact so take one of the walking trails around the sights, do a little shopping and check out some of the nightlife. The Sunday night flight departs in the evening so you’ve got another full day to enjoy your city break before heading home.
Another excellent weekend city break is Washington DC. Let Virgin Atlantic fly you out of Heathrow on Friday afternoon and you’ll have two days to explore the historic sights of Washington DC and maybe learn a few tricks in the Spy Museum! Virgin Atlantic flies to and from Washington DC twice a day so you can build a city break to Washington DC around what you want to do most.
How about a weekend of summer to beat those endless grey days? It may seem a long way but a weekend city break in Cape Town should not be discounted. The Friday night Virgin Atlantic flight to Cape Town will get you there by lunchtime and then you’ve got a day and a half to make the most of your city break, whether that’s sampling the wine or experiencing Table Mountain before your overnight flight back on Sunday.
