They have employees that seem to love their jobs. Don't see that to often in this industry anymore. Their prices are better then anyone else I can find. The coach seats are more comfortable then any other airlines coach seats I have ever sat in. Their first class is wonderful and you can get the seats for great prices too. Not to mention they are really comfortable. They do have a frequent flyer program. It's called eleVAte. If you look on their website it's all over the place. Easy to sign up and you can actually use the points for a flight. Unlike may other airlines that I have useless miles on, that I can't ever use when I need to and now it will probally be impossible now. I think Virgin America is great!!!

Its aircraft cabins are so dark, I couldn't see my seat number on the overhead. The purple and red mood lighting reminds me of a strip club. Never did see a flight attendant. In their all black uniforms they were almost invisible in the dark. Plus they are forced to stay in the galley to see order coming in on a computer screen. Movies are $7, TV shows 99 cents per episode. The live satellite TV didn't work very well. It kept cutting out every five minutes. No frequent flyer progra. No VIP lounges. I could go on, but you get the idea. Virgin America is more sizzle than steak. I didn’t like flying on Virgin America. Its aircraft cabins are so dark, I couldn’t see my seat number on the overhead.

If they are successful they will put a lot of pressure on United, American Airlines, and Delta in the SFO/LAX-JFK route. The catch is, their legroom is a little less than what JetBlue offers which is disappointing and with United's new <a href="http://www.united.com/page/article/0,6722,50964,00.html?jumpLink=%2Fps" title="United Premium Service">Premium Service</a>, they will give Virgin America a run for their money. Premium Service is a three class plane with even the "economy" having more legroom and power outlets (110v). I’ve been wanting to fly Virgin America ever since they announced flights.

Before then I loved it, but with all the security hassles and half the flights being delayed I really dislike flying now. In May I went to the Red Hat Summit in San Diego and had a few hour flight there (from IND). If I had known about them then, I would've taken a Virgin America flight. I'll definitely remember that the next time I'm booking a ticket! Wow, wish I had known that a few months ago. I absolutely hate flying, post 9/11.
