Didn't realize Virgin did as well though.
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.

Does jetblue credit back trueblue points if the flight was purchased with points?

i didnt realize most airlines dont do this! i see now from the post that only a few do.

i bought a ticket on AA a few days ago for $168 one way and it dropped to $140 - and they want a change fee of $150 even with EP status!
