VIRGIN ATLANTIC AIRWAYS LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 01600117, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 26 November 1981 and lists its registered address as CRAWLEY, United Kingdom. 1 shareholder is on record for VIRGIN ATLANTIC AIRWAYS LIMITED, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn.
