What’s happened to the Muscat this year? Was hoping to try for the first time. this was my second year got 3 S/Ml and 3 S/Mt

So includes Etihad flights booked through the virgin website?

I'd try and get PE seats, can sometimes be cheaper than flexi. Last time I flew to LAX PE was $180 each way more expensive than saver. Win win as deeskick says, more status and points. Although on another note, not a fan of PE as the armrests aren't raisable, would rather economy with a spare...

Lesson learnt for next time. So appears either the girl in the morning didn't have a clue or my complaint in the morning worked, probably the former. I agree Row 3 is great, however, this is a 2am flight so priority will be sleep, so raisable arm rests in an unfilled row is a priority over leg...

Just booked flights yesterday, at least it saved me $16 in CC fees. Glad this is finally here.
