Main Cabin Select packs on sale.
Great if you know you'll need some short notice flights...
Otherwise at these prices it seems like it makes much more sense to buy cheap and pay upgrade costs.
2 pack:
Short $594
Medium $1146
Long $1942
4 pack:
Short $1134
Medium $2172
Long $3710

For short haul, looking at a weekend trip to from SFO to SEA (which my wife and I have been wanting to do to visit friends) economy priced out at $559 round trip for 2. I'd say paying an additional $17 per person to upgrade to main cabin select is a pretty good deal.
However we could also book SJC-SEA (we live in San Jose) on the same dates with Alaska for $359 total round trip for 2. So compared to alternative airlines, an extra $117 per person isn't worth it for a 2 hour flight in main cabin select.

I'd be very wary of doing business with Gilt or any of their affiliated companies given the recent reports of deceptive practices.

Still this could have some value to someone, but for the most part this is too pricey for what it is.

You can check the Craigslist of the cities that Virgin America flies.

New here but I would possibly be interested in purchasing 2 long haul flights. Would you be able to PM me the details on this? I have a paypal account for the transaction. Thank you
