Booking through tickets Manchester to Miami.

I have been trying to get prices online this morning for through tickets for next May from Manchester to Miami but it just doesn't come up as an option. I thought the Man-LHR begins before May.

Does this mean we are only going to be able to book individual tickets and therefore not have the through booking advantage of higher baggage allowance etc?

Just a guess but maybe the IT folk at Virgin haven't got round to adding in the MAN / LHR links?

I may be doing them a disservice, as we know that they are usually SO on the ball when it comes to this sort of thing - NOT!. 8D

I think at the moment for that flight you need to go through the flight connector option, not sure if it allows you to book though.
The MAN flights did come up as bookable a couple of days ago on the website, but looks like VS have switched that off again.

Problem is with the flight connection tool, it doesn't mean you'll be on the same PRN, so no protection.

Best bet is to call as they are bookable over the phone.

Thankyou. Just wanting to get some idea of prices against BA as would prefer VS with them starting the MAN-LHR but they don't make things easy do they?

If you phone you can book now - if you want to do it on the website they'll be available Wednesday
