Over the years travelers looking for cheap flights from the United States to London have come to appreciate Virgin Atlantic. The airline operated by the billionaire mogul Richard Branson offers up moderately priced flights with a bit more comfort than most transatlantic airlines.
Virgin recently launched a new branch of their airline called Virgin America. The first flight will be on August 9, 2007. The discount airline currently has five airport destinations – New York JFK, Washington Dulles, Las Vegas, San Francisco and Los Angeles. It might be limited in scope at the moment, but it is still worth a look if for nothing else its introductory flight ticket sale.
Virgin America is offering round trop flights from coast to coast for less than $300. Flights from LA to San Francisco start at $91 round trip. Any time you see a price like that it bodes well for travelers. It means other airlines will have to offer cheap flights too to keep up with their new competitors.
To get the discount prices on Virgin America you need to make your purchase by August 8, 2007.
