I have attended another Virgin America inaugural this week, and thankfully it was a bit more festive than the Dallas Love Field launch two weeks ago. Virgin America purchased some La Guardia slots from American Airlines last year, as American Airlines has to give up some slots in order to gain approval for its merger with US Airways. Anyway Virgin America decides to use these new eight slots to begin service from La Guardia to Dallas Love Field, which can provide a convenient connection to SFO and LAX. The staffs at La Guardia were mostly veterans, who worked at JFK, and were enthusiastic about this new station. Virgin America has also introduced a more premium style first class meals in first class too for these Dallas to East Coast flights. It is clear that Virgin America considered these flights premium and high yield.
I arrived at La Guardia the day before and I took a few photos showing their preparations. Virgin America flies out from Concourse C of the Central Terminal Building, which is also known as Terminal B. C6 is where VX uses. Its check-in counters are located between American Airlines and United Airlines.

I arrived La Guardia a bit earlier than normal, as I wanted to visit the new American Express Centurion lounge.
Check-in counters are fully set up, and there are the usual first class/MCS/elevate gold/silver check-in, as well as full service line, baggage drop off, and self-check-in kiosks. There were staffs helping passengers on this inaugural day of service, and many of the inaugural flight passengers were new Virgin America flyers.
