At the moment, miles&money flights only seem to be available up to end of march 2005 on the Virgin Atlantic website. Anybody happen to know when Virgin would normally release m&m flights for july?
Thanks

I spoke to FC back in Aug about MpM fares for next april and they told me the people who do the MpM fares have no set dates when they publish them and they maybe online buy the end of oct but there not.
So i guess it's just a case of checking the site every week or giveing FC a call and badgering them.
In the end i pay'd for a PE flight and UG to UC with miles worked out about £300 more for a PE fare over a PE MpM fare.
Cheers

Thanks for the info.
Out of interest does anybody know how much you save per ticket in economy miles&money and also PE miles&money?

Varies on what promotions they are doing - particularly with recent economy sale fares (which mostly earnt tier points and miles) m&m fares weren't particularly attractive.
Other option for PE is to buy a qualifying economy ticket and use miles to upgrade - this way you still earn tier points and miles on the economy fare.

Phone up for the MpM fares, Economy ones are available now but not Premium or Upper yet.
I got a quote for a friend for BOS for July, £320+taxes.
Thanks,
Richard
