Thanks for clearing that up
Out of my last 4 Virgin flights, 3 were a nightmare (including check-in not opening until 45 mins before scheduled departure!). Also, I dont think saving $10 is really worth it in the long run.
Thanks for all your help tho, I think I will just join and look forward to my trip.
Just crossing my fingers for that window seat now, on a nice shiny A333 :P
