The MEL - PER $139 fare is good, but my Mastercard was all a quiver at the possibility of cheap J fares. Offer and I will spend Virgin

re: Happy Hour returns

The LAX flights are all for the Month of November (1-30).

The PER options are all May 12 to June 22.

BNE/VLA May 4 to June 18.

ADL/DPS April 28 to June 24.

SYD/NAN Oct 26 to Dec 9

The Domestic and Pacific Island seem to be one way normal price on the return.

Disappointing that the PER offers didn't actually seem to be available in June - possibly my work laptop though!

When I searched, it defaulted to May and as soon as I changed the date, specials disappeared!

Until the arm chair experts get some experience their comments are worthless. Amazing how the smug who have no idea have to open their mouths. But then that ego centric world view probably explains why they think it's AESummerT.

A few people here could/should remember that on a variety of topics :!:

There was an email sent. Are you registered for V-mail? Perhaps check your preferences in your account :?:

re: Happy Hour returns

My email did not arrive until after the event. Is this VA's "fault" or is it my browser or just slow transmission ouitside the VA server's control? (Apologies...I am not an information technology guru.)

I received the email at 2.41pm. I have no idea about how senders or telco's or servers or mailguards distribute email.

re: Happy Hour returns

It was good to have variety and once a week could be a good idea.

But at the risk of sounding negative the specials were not that special!
