LONG-HAUL holidays to sunny destinations are always dreamy – but they're even better when discounts are involved.
Virgin Holidays has launched a new sale with up to £250 off holidays to the Maldives and Dubai.
From October, Virgin Atlantic will launch direct weekly services to Male, with three overnight flights every week.
While Dubai will see four flights every week.
The newly launched seasonal services will run until March 2024, and both will depart from London Heathrow.
The discount is available on all holidays departing between October 22, 2023, and March 29, 2024.

You'll have plenty of options in Dubai, including The Palm, Jumeirah Beach and Dubai City.
Dubai City is usually the cheapest option, with holidays costing from £855pp.
For instance, we've found four nights at Centara Mirage Beach Resort Dubai from £874pp on a b&b basis.
While The Palm is a hub for world-famous restaurants and hotels – and holidays start from £1,055pp for five nights.
The most expensive option is Jumeirah Beach. Here you'll get to enjoy Dubai's iconic skyline, clear waters and white sandy beaches – so it's perfect for those after a beach holiday.
Stays in Jumeirah Beach cost from £1,202pp.
No matter which part of Dubai you opt for, you'll be spoiled for choice on how to fill your days.
Families could head to Legoland Dubai or Aquaventure Waterpark – the world's largest waterpark, with 105 waterslides and attractions.
On the other hand, the Maldives are made up of more than 1,100 islands, with only 200 inhabited.
Holidays in the Maldives are more expensive than in Dubai, but you'll be greeted by some of the world's best white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters.
That being said, plenty of deals are available, with prices from £1,917pp.
Some resorts will even include freebies in your booking – you could receive complimentary seaplane transfers, room upgrades and free upgrades to all-inclusive.
Meanwhile, you could spend two weeks in Egypt from £499pp, including a Nile cruise.
