Booking a Virgin flight using miles only

[susieh]

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to see what dates are available without having to keep entering a single date at a time and being told "no flights available on that date"?

And is there any info anywhere which tells you if any times of the year are blackout times when you can not do this?

Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

when I was booking ours I checked the box that said use miles and then if the flight I wanted wasn't available a calendar was shown with what was available. Admittedly I didn't always get it but I just started again and it usually appeared.

the call centre has the option to see what dates are free for 30 days so might be worth calling them

I had the same experience as Zeebs. I wanted a date in April and it came up with the whole of May showing all free dates available.

Your experience would indicate that there are no free flights within a month after date entered.

Orlando free flights are few and far between.

Hi there,

We had the same problem, so we decided to go via New York. Fly to NY on points 18,000 each way, nearly all dates are available, then we bought a incredibly cheap Delta flt to Orlando direct. It works for us as we decided to pop into NY for a couple of days sightseeing.
