Paying for upgrades
Hello.
I have never flown Virgin America before. I don't know anything about their procedures.
I have to travel for a business trip. My company booked a flight for me on Virgin America coach, paying directly. I never gave the airline any payment information. Will it be possible for me to pay for a T-24 upgrade with my own credit card, or will it try to charge whatever card my company bought the original ticket with? I don't even want to click the button to find out if it will cause trouble.
Yes, I'm paranoid, but I've had reservations screwed up in other ways that resulted in me having to sit on the phone with the airline for an hour trying to get it fixed, and I'd like to avoid that kind of thing. I'd also like to avoid having to explain to the company finance department why I charged a first class upgrade on their card. Better safe than sorry.
Thanks.
