  • I've been planning to go to LA to visit a friend since he moved a little while back.  I received a very tempting offer for a $299 ticket...but it was from Delta.  Amazing that they can take me on a round trip for a dollar less than it would cost for the surfboard one way  :o!

    Despite the fact that I wasn't on planning on taking my board, I still didn't want to give my money to Delta...yet the ticket is over $100 less than anyone else...until today!

    Virgin America stepped in with a $271 round trip ticket..snatched it up and I'm on my way to LaLa land  ;D

    Maybe this will signal a start of the good ol' price wars...and they will have to do away with discriminatory fees to compete  :P

    PS:  I could take my board for $50 each way with Virgin  ::)

    I'm flying Virgin America...not Atlantic.  I see on their websites that they have different rules...kinda sucks, but it's still not as bad as Delta.

  • and, reported in today's news, Delta is also considered the worst of all domestic airlines for bumping passengers and overbooking flights.  so they really are Doing Everything to Limit Travel Abroad.
