I'm sold - jumped in to VA IAD-SFO F

Ok, so I'm a sucker for new, or is it fed up with old...

Just purchased IAD-SFO R/T in F on VA (gotta watch those Us and Vs now).

$858.80 all in for 26 Sep. Non-refundable, but F can make changes for free.

Since I fly IAD-SFO and upgrade to "C" using CR-1 or 500 milers (poor success rate last 2 years) from $500-700 fares I'll look to see what I get for the extra $150-250 spent.

Service will be counted as part of the value equation as will the fact that I have NO status on Virgin vs. 1K on UA.
