Points Booking - VA connecting to Delta or Virgin America

[chrisbris]

Hi VFF,

Just wondering if there were any plans to make points bookings the include a Delta leg or a Virgin America leg that then connect to a Virgin Australia flight (or vice versa) all on the same ticket possible.

I know there a few Virgin America destinations that are possible but there are still many that are not listed.

I was trying to book a points booking J class Orlando-LAX-Brisbane but the call center advised MCO-LAX and LAX-BNE would be on separate tickets. So I booked LAX-BNE as a reward booking and am now looking at the Orlando-Los Angeles.

I am worried about delays in flights MCO-LAX meaning I will miss my LAX-BNE flight….Be great if it could have all been on one ticket similar to Qantas with award flights that include oneworld partners.

Thanks!

Now VA use SABRE, this should be possible.

Hey Serfty - you would hope so - but unfortunately when I tried 3 weeks ago it was not possible and the agent wanted to issue 2 separate tickets....
