Any chance you can order a refundable ticket?
Just booked Oct. 22 -26 the way back was $267.00 but still a great price.
What does coast to coast mean
tam…do you read????
DAN,
THANKS FOR THE POST- GREAT DEAL! ON A DIFFERENT TOPIC, ANY THOUGHTS ON WHERE TO TRANSFER AMEX PLATINUM 100,000 PTS? I AM NOT SURE WHERE I AM FLYING TO YET AND WANTED TO CANCEL THE CARD TO GET THE $450 REFUND… ANY SUGGESTIONS WHERE TO HOLD ON TO THEM FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS? ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE AWESOME.. THANKS!
Cant find any prices under 365 during these dates??
Dan – Thanks for the terrific deal. I cannot find where it states on priceline’s website that the ticket can be cancelled untill 1130, on their website. Can you please provide a link?

Please advise

You write: Virgin America: Fly Coast To Coast For Just $197.80 Round Trip With Tax, that it is free to cancel until the next day (time varies depending on site), but the sites say ticket is non-refundable. I am wondering where you saw the cancellation info.
@Sam: I have some aeroflot points I can donate.
@ymk:
Flush it
so i booked a ticket for summer with the deal (yay), i was wondering, is there anyway i can add my united mileage number to my orbitz ticket?
Dan,
This deal apply to also departing from Chicago?
Any deals for Israel trip in May from NY or toronto or Montreal.
I dont see virgin america on priceline for that price, however I see united as well as american,
do you know what’s the cancellation policy with united?
Hi, Im’ having a major problem getting the deal – it still says $300+ for the cost. What am I doing wrong?
@Dan: thanx for the reply. i did read the forum and list of airlines… however how do i book a flight to israel using those carriers thru aeroplan cause i dont get those options online and the cheapest ticket ive found was 250 in taxes/gas. thanx!!!
also im not flyin w kids
american also matched the fare
i cant find this deal ?
we should buy from virgin cuz it’s only thanks to them united AA matched the fair
fare seems dead
Cancelation policies: http://www.dot.gov/affairs/2012/dot0812.html
Booked the deal earlier today!!! First of all the deal is now dead. Second, United and American Airlines do not compete with Virgin! I flew all 3 and Virgin is by far better than the other 2
Is AA’s match also only from EWR or even from JFK?
Thanks Dan! Booked five tickets for my family for Sukkos for under a thousand bucks! Great success.
