Virgin America is an American airline that was founded in 2004 and began operations in 2007. Headquartered in Burlingame, California.

The airline's mission statement entails providing low-fare, high-quality service for service between major metropolitan cities on the Eastern and West Coast seaboards. Virgin America's frequent flyer program Elevate provides award flights and other benefits to frequent fliers. Lots of passengers enjoy travelling with Virgin America and this is because flight ticket prices is subsidized greatly which has in turn led to numerous flight delays and cancellations.

Your Rights as an
Air-Passenger

Ever since the European Passenger Rights Regulation came into play, Delays and cancellations have been cut down a great deal. Passengers whose flight has been delayed for at least 3 hours or canceled without prior notice of at least 14 days can all lay claims to compensation. Non-EU airlines are also subject to the EU regulation if they start from an airport within the EU or land in an Eu country even if it isn’t an EU airline. Airlines often times do all they can to ensure that notice of an imminent cancellation is given in good time. In situations like this, the airline is mandated to make provision of an alternative airline and the passengers have a right to say if they want to accept the offer or if they would prefer to have a full refund. Amount payable as compensation is totally dependent on the flight distance and not the ticket price. Passengers are to however note that Airlines are not held responsible for delays and cancellations that are as a result of exceptional conditions such as Bird strikes or storms.

All you have to do is submit your claims online for evaluation and if found valid, we will make you an offer which is transferred directly to your account within 3 - 24 hours * upon agreement.
