I guess there is always LAX-SFO-LAS or another carrier.
According to the sometimes questionable wikipedia source, VX has 10 A/C on order. Frankly, they should be using those added planes to bring more people into the VX network like they did when they announced FLL.

I have said this on a few occasions before, but I am still at a loss as to why VX, as a west-coast based carrier, has not entered into PDX yet. A PDX-SFO route would not tie-up a single aircraft like a transcontinental flight would, plus PDX has almost the perfect demographics that a trendy carrier like VX would want.
