I have select vouchers which when issued was told if there are point seats available I could exchange the voucher for those corresponding flights. Now under this new ticketing system been told I can only exchange for Fare Class Z tickets. Is there any way to view Z class availability without constantly calling up customer service, wasting their time and mine, to check my various options??

An email from VA implied this can be done on the website and they provided this link which does show Fare Class

https://book.virginatlantic.com/flight/ ... n_atlantic

but if i make any changes to the search, such as different departure/destination, the far class disappears and can't view.

Please can someone help as this is driving me mad!

Yes I realise that its meant to show in the brackets.

it works on that link from VA but once change i change departure/destination I no longer see it. Or if I do my own general search the Fare Class never shows.

(Sorry - I deleted my first post after re-reading your post)

The only way is to select the flight and add it to your basket. Once you have done that, under where is says 'Price Summery' click the fare conditions link. You will then see the code code for example : Fare code IHW99NDP

The first letter of the code is the fare type so my example is I.

Clicking your link though it look like you are only looking for a one-way fare? I don't think that will give you any Z fares on VS as a Z fare usual requires a return flight.

VA gave me that link as a way to view Fare Class. No matter if I view one way or return I was seeing it otherwise.

I will try your method. Thanks

Thaks Mitch, bit long winded when have potentially 12 different flights options to check.

However wish I'd seen Commander B sticky post on ITA Matrix sooner. Amazing tool and hopefully the results are accurate for Z class seats. As far as I'm concerned will revolutionise for when people want to bo reward seats using 2 for 1 vouchers, select vouchers etc
