Virgin Atlantic Sale!

As per title, the Virgin Atlantic Sale has started - New York from £349, Miami £399, Orlando £429.

I would guess that AA, BA etc will all load their fares in the next day or so ... If they haven't already!

Is it just me, or the prices did not drop very much?:(

Interesting that some sale fares are available for travel Easter Monday to 26 May 2011, great for those who can get the 3 working days off between Easter and the royal wedding/may bank holiday weekend and want to get away.

And why would any 'alien' willingly travel to the USA at any price?

I need dates for the end of August/beginning of September - any idea if/when they'll be put up?

You will be lucky to get any kind of reduction on summer holiday flights.

I have been following Vegas flights via Kayak - is it a coincidence that flight prices went up a few days before the Virgin sale???

Pass - I don't really follow Virgin pricing, but BA tend to be pretty consistent i.e. they don't increase their presale prices to make the sales look more of a bargain.

Well the return is after school goes back (Sept 11th of all dates) but it would be open-jaw (into San Fran, back from LA) so do sales only cover straight forward return flights?

The open jaw aspect should not be a problem, I normally do the same, but I still think you will struggle to ever get sale prices on those dates.

I wouldn't worry about flying on September 11th - I would imagine it is one of the safest dates you could fly on nowadays.

I'm not at all worried about the 9/11 flight - although I imagine the security checks will be a nightmare that day, but also that people will be scared off flying so a quieter flight?
