Hi

Currently booked into PE on a P ticket for the return journey from LAS

Should a miles upgrade be available at check-in ( n( ) is there anyone with an idea on the approximate taxes applicable to the fare?

Cheers
Rich

ISTBC but a one-way from US doesn't attract premium classes tax, only the APD does ex-UK

It's not the tax that will jump, it's Virgin's own Fuel Surcharge (which is not a tax) - that will increase significantly.

No tax, all Virgin-controlled fuel surcharge.

WE were quoted £1900 for two of us to upgrade from PE to UC on a return from Vegas, that was 3 years ago. :0
