01 January 2021:  Happy new year, happy new dest

Dear pilots, dear visitors,

Atlas Virtual Airlines wishes everyone a happy new year - hopefully it will be better than 2020. 

To celebrate a new beginning, we added two new destinations: Zanzibar, an exotic island which is part of Tanzania, and the Syrian capital Damascus. 

Several scheduled flights have been added to these new destinations, and in a few days there should also be charters available. If you are the first to fly to one of these airports you can earn an award, too.

I'm looking forward to seeing you in the skies!

31 March 2020:  New airports and routes

Dear pilots and visitors.

Atlas is proud to announce the addition of two new destinations to our network: Washington Dulles (KIAD) and Eindhoven (NL).

Furthermore, we have added 78 new routes to our network, serving not only these two new destinations but also existing airports. There's some interesting long-haul flights like Frankfurt-Honolulu, Dubai-Melbourne, Dubai-Sydney and Dubai-Auckland. But there are also short-haul flights to previously underserved airports like Dusseldorf and Wilmington.

Remember that if you fly a route for the first time, you get extra points, and if you are the first to fly to a new destination you get an award. 

We hope you enjoy these additions and come fly with us. 

best regards,
