Just go to www.virginamerica.com. It's not a "secret" link. Still plenty of dates available.

When I first received the email from them, I was able to select SFO-CUN-SFO at $58 each leg. Unfortunately, it would reprice 4-5 times that when going to the next step after selecting each leg. 
Seems like a classic bait and switch tactic.

Hi mspel- Thanks for bringing this fare sale to everyone's attention and thanks for participating in the Mileage Run forum.
According to our forum guidelines though, these sale fares fall a little short of true Mileage Run material.
I will move your thread to the Virgin America Elevate forum, and you can follow the discussion there. This is already being discussed in another thread in that forum, so this thread may get merged with it.

Though the sale is over, it's worth noting that it had some rather tangled T&C attached to it. It was also coach-only (and believe me, I poked around since I've got some F tickets that I could have managed an advantageous rebook on and some other tickets I need to book sometime in the next few months).
