Hi All,
I recently flew LAX-SFO-MAN return. I used miles to upgrade to UC, and Virgin was unable to upgrade to LAX-SFO portion so that was economy.
LAX-SFO was with Delta and got ticketed in X outbound and T return (not sure why different fare classes), so I was able to get my Skymiles who I credited to. However, the SFO-MAN was ticketed in G which is award class I believe and not eligible for Skymiles. Is this correct? I paid for three economy tickets and then upgraded, shouldn't we be eligible for miles based on an economy fare? I wondering whether it's worth the time to call Virgin on this or if there really are no miles given when you upgrade.
Thanks for your help on this.
