What's the pints of the deal? Are you allowed to make a long stop in LAX? If not that's a long trip to FLL.

Right, was thinking about mileage run, but virgin america works with amount spent not miles flown. So if no luggage this is a good deal, not amazing though.

You can credit to SQ at 100% of mileage flown, IIRC.

Thanks for the tip, that is good to know. Any other partners like that to earn with, and does jetblue have any similar partner relationships like that too?

Confirmed that with this link - http://www.singaporeair.com/pdf/ppsclub_krisflyer/charts/KFOALLevels.pdf.

This is a list of their partners. I see Korean, El Al, and Cathay Pacific, for example, but I don't know the earning rates.

Thanks, just checked myself on a dummy booking, none of those partners were eligible. Only the three virgin airlines, singapore, emirates and maybe another one.

There have been $122 fares to LAX where you can check luggage and get a return trip for the same price...is this that exciting?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

The other VX DDMS post had people asking about dates and stuff.
Was easier to just write about it.

So smart to do the dates thingy, that deletes like 90% of the comments :)

Re the other Virgin America main site post today, and other such airfare deals posts. If i can make a suggestion to maybe add yiddishe calendar dates, alongside the other dates, I think it would help a lot. Something like this.

20 percent off Virgin America flights, travel dates are October 20 (Tishrei 26) to December 17 (Kislev 25).

Blackout dates are: 11/10 (Cheshvan 17), 11/21 - 12/01 (Cheshvan 28 to Kislev 9).

Hey it is really not that hard, I think ur going overboard. You can easily search it up on a site like chabad.org or quickly on the apple calendar app with hebrew dates. And it would save so many people having to do the search themselves. We are a yiddishe site and we can be proud of it, we don't have to be like TFD.

Dan almost always writes when certain dates are bookable for the chagim. That's extremely helpful. I think hebrew dates would be a little overboard, but that's just me.
