VA flight numbers, VA metal, on VA stock, and have earned all the points accordingly. I'm thinking that once I get back the 370SC to call them and check.

I must admit however that looking back over tickets from last year, I noticed that flex fares have gone up by 16-19% (e.g. $256 vs $219, and $236 vs $199). That is a significant increase within the year especially that the company allocated travel budget did not increase by that much. I doubt any corporation would provision such increase off the bat. What gives?!

I'm not gonna talk about connecting flights costs as a result of the step back to Sabre, nor about the significant increase in Business fares. There's also the issue of availability whereby the cheaper buckets, including saver and base flex, seem more like blocked off than sold out.
