VIRGIN Atlantic is to launch a third weekly service from Glasgow to Orlando Florida next year.
Sir Richard Branson's airline will add an extra 3500 departure seats over June, July, September and October to meet high demand for travel to the Sunshine State from Scotland.
Francois Bourienne, Glasgow Airport's commercial director, said: "This is fantastic news for Scottish travellers looking to get away to America's Sunshine State.
"It demonstrates the popularity of the Orlando service which has grown every year since it launched at Glasgow Airport in 2007."
Seats can be booked from Friday.
Earlier this year Virgin Atlantic announced it was increasing its schedule from Glasgow with a new service to Las Vegas in September and October 2015.
