Any benefit on bidding earlier (LAX route) or wait till few weeks before/invite comes through?
I bid $160 (the minimum) on a Adel-Bris flight and did not succeed. I noticed the seats in business were empty so asked at lounge if I could buy them at the $160 price and he said it would $220 so I and passed on the price and I noticed the business seats remained empty. Nice way to treat your platinum customers.
I’d buy J outright. That way you get the status points and certainty. I flew that route earlier this year, J outbound (on a points upgrade), Y inbound. If I fly VA on that route again, I’ll definitely upgrade both legs. That particular plane is okay for short domestic flights, but not so comfortable for a longer international flight. You well and truly feel like a sardine.Anyone successfully bid east coast to DPS? I can purchase outright for $763 one way with a promo code so I might just do that. Cheapest Y is 350 and i imagine a bid of 300ish required anyway?

I'm only a low RED.. so what are the chances getting it at $410 or should i just use points?
