    Flying to US and Internal US Flights

    We've just booked our ADL>LAX return flights and will do internals separately. Question regarding Delta. As a velocity gold if i book a delta flight for example lax to jfk am I eligible for the delta + upgrade and lounge access etc? Sorry I only just recently hit Gold so still not 100% on the perks.

    Well yea, the cheapest itinerary was looking through i want that flight and searching via a multi city search. I have also tried searching for the OS leg individually via Virgin and Delta. Searching through Delta direct for ADL>NYK the cheapest fare is 1350pp.

    Should it matter whether I book directly through delta or via a third party booking site? Also is it worth calling the velocity contact centre to see what they can do?
