I'm curious as to what gate VX will use at ANC. I don't see AS giving them the time of day here, so that rules out the C concourse. B6 will need two gates if they keep their current schedule. That means UA, DL, US, and B6 will all have aircraft parked at B3 through B9 at the midnight hour.
Pretty much all that's left is B1, assuming Shared Services doesn't RON one of their 737's there overnight, or parking over at the never-neverland of the North Terminal.
In any case, stoked that VX is coming up here. ^

Anchorage 2014 booking?
If Virgin is going to fly ANC-SFO in '14 on more or less the same schedule as 2013, they should be restarting service around June 5, 2014. Any idea when they might begin booking?

The southbound ANC - SFO is a redeye menu. I don't work redeyes, but I believe right now the options are a turkey pesto sandwich with gazpacho or a egg & cheese croissant.

Well, the airline does send a "pre-departure" email, which is something that should be (1) on the website with the description of the inflight services (or lack thereof), and (2) an advisory when booking/ticketing the flights. It goes a little something like this ...
Our records indicate that you are soon scheduled to fly with us on VX61 from Anchorage (ANC) to San Francisco (SFO). We would like to make you aware that our GoGo Inflight Wireless and Dish Network satellite TV are available throughout the continental U.S. However, coverage for GoGo Wireless and Dish Network does not currently extend above the U.S./Canadian border.
We are truly sorry for any disappointment this may cause. You will still have access to many of our other features like premium movies, a selection of both premium and free On-Demand TV, and other video and music content via our Red In-Flight Entertainment System. Of course our electrical outlets will still be operating, too, so you won't miss a beat if you bring your own laptop, tablet or other electronic device pre-loaded with some great content.
We look forward to welcoming you on board and apologize for this inconvenience.
Kind regards,
The Virgin America Guest Services Team
