No problem pulling up the itinerary, I only have 1 segment, well 2 if you count the return.

I was looking forward to flying Virgin, I have only heard good things about them. However, I lost some respect for them after this. The idea they are charging to keep families together, or to prevent someone from getting in a middle seat, even when booking 6 months out.

Only good thing I have found, is that there are 3 seats together on the upper deck, which probably would not be if people didn't have to pay for the assignment.

I will pay in the end, if I do not find a way around it.
