Folks,

I know you can now book with Delta and use VS miles...but is there anyway to find out how many you need for a given flight in advance? I'm just toying with ideas at the moment, so need to have an idea of how far my miles will go with Delta. Also, I'm assuming I can use them ex-DUB, rather than through a UK airport. Hence avoiding the dreaded APD!

This chart may be of some help http://www.virgin-atlantic.com/us/en/flying-club/flying-club-partners/airlines/delta-air-lines.html. Only yesterday I booked a Delta business class flight JFK-VCE-JKF (UK is on the list, however Europe is not) for 100K VS miles and $43.00.
