Are all there taxes and fees on the US flights? I know there are fees to Mexico, but wondering about US only. Thanks!

TENTATIVE UPDATE - Gilt City reports that this is unintentional - "... the system that allows this functionality is currently down. Virgin America is looking into it. You may contact their call center for seat assignments."[/QUOTE]

After booking your ticket go to View Itinerary you can then choose your seats.

Are there other MCS fare classes or if there is a MCS seat available can you book it?

I went onto expertflyer and saw plenty of W & O fares for the December dates I wanted. In fact, I believe they may have matched the number of MCS open on the seat map. I was able to get 4 seats on the same flights!

Excellent deal for 1st time Giltcity users - in for 3 short hauls for $377 after $50 (20%off discount).

You have to jump on this if you're SFO based and fly west coast routes b/c this deal has MAX flexibilty. Esp since those route are usually btween $140-200 r/t and only earn 1000-2000 eqm each so no point to stay on a major as not much mileage to accrue.

For basically $125 r/t you're getting food, drinks, e+,& a free bag to any of the following from SFO:

SEA,LAS,LAX,SAN. Not to mention that these are only $215 r/t in F due to t-6 $39 o/w upgrades!

Great deal!

I was freaking out & debating if I should do this all day. When I finally settle to do it, 10 trip long hauls sell out! ARGH! I signed up to be notified, so hopefully they'll get restocked!

I decided to jump the gun and purchased the 3 long haul package last night. But I still haven't received the promo codes and the long haul deal is now gone.

I saw someone got the promo code rather quickly so I wonder how long does it take to receive the promo code.

I called the rep and he told me it can take up to 24 hours... and I did check my spam box and there is no email from gilt city.
