The Juice: A Little Something Extra for your morning

Travel

Passengers today will find out if Virgin America is as super as it promises. The carrier's inaugural flights take off from its hub in San Francisco to New York and L.A.

Virgin says it's committed to trying to keep a smile on your face, and it offers some more tangible new extras as well, like free text messaging between passengers and USB, Ethernet and power plugs at every seat.
