Great Lakes Airfares...

For those of you who happened to be flying out of the West Coast area, I just wanted to share this tidbit of information.

After shopping around for airfares, we found a civilian super deal and booked with Virgin Airlines http://virginamerica.com/ $89 dollars each way! From SFO (San Francisco International Airport) to ORD (Chicago O'Hare) $199.40 total for a non-stop flight round-trip, includes taxes and fees.

If you booked a flight and later discovered that the same flight dropped in price, they will credit you the difference if you contact them within 24 hours of booking. Otherwise, they will give you an in-flight credit for the difference to use for future flights.

I also signed up for their free frequent flyer miles membership they call "Elevate" to take advantage of travel points. You never know when you'll need them just in case, you can rack up your points.

My wife has flown with Virgin America a number of times over when she traveled to and from Seattle, WA. I've heard nothing but raving reviews from her. And believe me she's not easy to please.

Just wanted to throw this out there. Maybe you too can share some great deals in airfares for PIR...
