I love JetBlue. Haven't booked on virgin, but have heard good things.

If you're on the west coast, virgin is better. Fun you're in the northeast, JetBlue is better. If you're in the Midwest, neither works

I fly Virgin weekly, it's nice they got bought by Alaska (matched status easily). What's this about Emirates rewards?? Is that for Virgin Atlantic?

Yeah, you get Skywards points for both JetBlue and Virgin America

Jet Blue goes to Pittsburgh and I think Chicago. More flights out of IAD than DCA for DC area

Skywards redemption sucks btw. They require 5 times the number of miles as American or united would. Better off building points on Alaska and using them for redemption on Emirates. You could also transfer you spg points to Alaska and book on emorates
