I was due to travel with my family in August to Atlanta to see my father, but he has become critically ill and I need to go in the next few days. Cash prices are crazy, well in excess of £1500+ perhaps due to the 100k Heathrow cap or actually, they have been crazy to the USA for sometime. I have been trying to find a reward ticket (economy or premium economy) to anywhere in the USA so I can get in, but the Virgin website just says no availability. If someone knows/finds any reward availability to USA, could you please post here. I don’t have Seat Spy as I only travel 2-3 times a year.

Sorry to hear about your father. I”m seeing 18-20th July availability to Orlando (eco/pe). You might want to book it as a return as two one ways will be a killer on surcharges. Hope this helps!

@S879 sorry to hear. Seatspy can be cancelled immediately, it’s in effect a 1 month at a time rolling commitment. Probably worth the £2.99 spend to see all your possible options.
