Virgin Atlantic flights Book direct or with netflights

I also found Netflights to be cheaper than booking direct on the VS site. As Alan points out they have strong parents! Their sister company is Gold Medal which lots of travel agents use to access consolidator fares.

I have since booked a couple of flights through Netflights and not experienced any problems. They do tend to send a fair few follow up emails prompting you to add on hotels, car rental etc. but I probably forgot to opt out of the marketing.

I was looking at them again last night for an upcoming BA long haul and they were £65 cheaper than the same flights on BA.com

I have also found and booked on VS flights to Orlando via the delta.com site as being cheaper than VS. Even when you are on VS metal. No idea why this is the case. Might be worth you looking at that although Netflights may still be a better option.

My experiences with Netflights have been straight forward from both sides. I did not try to amend dates after booking, try for a refund on a non-refundable ticket and also was able to spell my name correctly, just some of the pit falls others seem to face and later complain about when changes are not made.

Good luck with the travel plans..

My experiences has been that once booked Netflights send you confirmation and this includes the airline locator. Once you have that I was able to go to MMB.

In both VS cases I was able to select seats via MMB but I had booked PE where seat assignments are free.
