VX: DFW-SFO-AUS rt April 10-12, $154 or 2.6 cpm
I was looking up flights to Austin from Dallas that weekend. Virgin came up at $154 rt as DFW-SFO-AUS-SFO-DFW. That's 2.6 cpm!

You're searching for DAL-AUS and you're getting it to route via SFO on April 10-12? Not seeing it on Virgin Website?

April 10-12, though I didn't look to see if there were others, which there may be.

It's all over the place, essentially you can go to SFO for $77 one way, at least 15-20% less than others.

Great find, looks like a useful fare to credit to SQ or other partners to get away from VX earning by $ scheme. I'm finding some through Google Flights Multi-City.

I just looked up DFW to AUS. in the alternate routing codes, i put SFO, without specific dates. It pops up for March and April.

First Class for only $219.
Not bad considering the DAL-SFO flight is priced at $770. LOL.
