Los Angeles Direct Return Flights from $787 on Virgin Australia @ Aunt Betty (Mel, Syd, Bris)

640
MUMSDAY50

Virgin Australia is a full service carrier, so checked baggage and meals are included. Example fares and travel period guides below. There's plenty available from late July through to early December.

These fares are available via Aunt Betty (Flight Centre company) using the current 'MUMSDAY50' voucher(expires 31 May).

VA's 777 Economy product is one of the best. Decent seat (3-3-3 configuration, pitch - 81cm, recline - 15cm recline, width - 18.5"), IFE is very good, meals acceptable (two served in addition to snacks). They also now arrive and depart from the Tom Bradley International Terminal at LAX (much better terminal, with more to see and do if waiting around).

  • If only Virgin owned and operated 787's….

    • +1

      I'm curious, what do 787's have that whatever plane they have right now don't?

      The last 787 I looked at had 3x3x3 seating anyway so it was cramped.

        I was more saying as the price is $787 lol…

      • Higher cabin air humidity and higher cabin pressurization of the 787 make a difference on flights of this length, that's the major difference in my eyes.

        I have no problems with the 9 wide 787 seating myself but I'm sure a 9 wide 777 is nothing to complain about. I've only flown 10 wide, would take the 787 any day over that all things considered.

      I’d take the lovely, spacious 9 across 777 Virgin operate over a cramped 9 across 787 every single day of the week.

    • I flew to LAX on Virgin's 777 last year. Was perfectly fine. For me it's more important whether an airline tries to cram 10 seats across rather than 9.

      I've added a few thoughts on Virgin Australia's 777 Economy product above. It's one of the best.

  • So thats 10 velocity points per dollar?

    • No it’s based on miles flown and what velocity tier you are on.

      Gold will net double those points.

      • I understood silver is a 25% bonus, gold is a 50% bonus and plat would be a 100% (double).

        VA also did have double or triple base point deals - not applicable at the moment sadly.

      • Was not the earning, it was the using I meant

    • Here are some specifics on earning points on international VA flights. Hope this helps. http://flyerpoints.com.au/velocity-frequent-flyer-points-fly…

  • Where do you input the voucher? And what are the applicable travel dates?

    Is it 50% off the flights?

  • Isn't this a good deal? Surprised it doesn't have more upvotes! Really keen to buy a trip to Canada in a couple of months… just hoping I'm getting the best deal possible.

    So sad I missed out on a corporate offer to double my status credits!
