Thanks Bill, I was a little whiny last night. But I would have caught that plane given the chance. Guatemala City is a shithole, but elsewhere in the country is perfectly safe in my experience.

Spirit seems very fond of 24hr deep sales (where the 24hr period is based on Eastern time). If they fly from a location convenient to you, I really recommend signing up for their email alerts.

NEW YORK, July 19 (Reuters) - Virgin America Airlines, the low-cost carrier with marketing ties to British entrepreneur Richard Branson, will begin ticket sales on Thursday after being given permission earlier this month to operate flights within the United States.
The airline said tickets will go on sale from 3 a.m. PDT (1000 GMT). An inaugural flight is scheduled for August 8.

They probably should have taken this bit down then:
"Virgin America does not currently have authority from the Department of Transportation to operate the services for which your ticket is being issued. You may, upon request, cancel your ticket and obtain a full refund at any time before we start operations. If we have not started operations by the date of your ticketed travel, we will make reasonable efforts to arrange substitute air transportation for you, at a cost of up to 200% of your Virgin America ticket. If we cannot arrange substitute transportation for you, we will refund to you 200% of the price paid for your Virgin America ticket."
Cheeky.
