Booking the VS with domestic connection
Hello
I am looking into AWS booking on Virgin (AMD-BOM-IAD) with BOM-IAD on VS via LHR and AMD-BOM on partner airline since VS does not have flight from AMD. Is booking the entire itinerary (AMD-BOM-IAD) using VS points possible? when I search Virgin's website using AMD-IAD it does not show any option.
I would greatly appreciate any help you could give me.
Thx

The VS website is not good for non-standard bookings. The drop down menu is very limited.
As you will see by reading the forum, partner airline booking is also often far from straightforward too.
Do as much pre-research as you can, deciding exactly what flights you would like to take, and add as much flexibility / alternatives as you can.
Then, when you have done that, you will have to ring up and hope that you get a half decent, and helpful agent.
If you don't get a good agent, you may have to HUCA.
