$200 airline fee reimbursement: Virgin America to join?
Please use this thread to report success or failure for Platinum/Centurion reimbursement of incidental expenses on Virgin America. I did not find any reports in the original thread which I am still sorting by carrier:

Virgin America to join the Amex Plat $200 reimbursement plan?
Recently joined amex plat... I assumed VX would be on the program as it is one of the MR partners. Wrong.
Does anyone know if they will join, or why they are not part of it? I assume it could be related to changes they would need to make to their POS systems to incorporate the trans codes needed by Amex to determine the eligibility/type of charge.

I have merged maxmin's question into the thread which I previously established for VX reimbursement reports, but there have been no reports. I do not believe the airline is involved in this program, it's entirely up to American Express. Inasmuch as VX is a Membership Rewards transfer partner I cannot think of any reason it would not appear on the list of eligible carriers.

I have edited the title to reflect that fact that VX is not eligible.
I created the original thread when a former moderator of the VX forum suggested it, and he must have thought that VX was an eligible airline. However, American Express customer service has confirmed that they are not on the list:
