Hi everyone,
I am a Virgin Platinum and will be flying from upstate NY to Sydney in May. So not only will Delta, who serves that airport, let me book the whole flight on one itinerary they are charging much less for it than Virgin is (Virgin wants $2000/person for just the flight from LAX to SYD while Delta only wants USD$1450/person for BUF-LAX-SYD on the same codeshared Virgin metal).
So I have a few questions:
1.) What benefits will I get with Platinum with Delta? Which lounge in LA is better the Virgin or Delta one? Would I have access to both?
2.) If I book it in one itinerary they'll send the bags straight through?
3.) Will the points and status credits on the Virgin leg be calulated as Virgin or Delta?
4.) I can also take the Delta LAX-> SYD flight - is VA's product better on this route?
As it stands at the moment with two of us traveling this will save us nearly $2,000 so it seems to be the way to go...
