Are they changing the layover hotel in Las Vegas? The July bid package says "will advise" for layover hotel on the rotations. I hope we don' get moved from where we are currently staying

* To codeshare on domestic and international routes
* Also connect frequent flier programmes
* Virgin already signed deals with Delta, Etihad, Air NZ (Adds detail)
SYDNEY, June 7 (Reuters) - Singapore Airlines has formed an alliance with Virgin Australia under a deal which will allow the two airlines to sell tickets and seats on each other's international and domestic flights, Virgin said on Tuesday.
Virgin, Australia's second-largest carrier, said on Tuesday the airlines planned to code-share on flights and offer reciprocal frequent flyer programme benefits and lounge access.
Virgin had been looking for a partner in Asia after forming alliances and partnerships with Delta Airlines , Etihad and Air New Zealand .
The alliance is aimed at connecting Singapore Airlines' international network with Virgin's routes within Australia and in the Pacific.
"With regulatory approval, the partnership will enable us to offer even more choice for domestic and international air travel," Singapore Airlines chief executive Goh Choon Phong said in a statement.
The alliance is subject to approval from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).
Asia is one of the fastest growing markets for air travel globally and a key battleground for airlines in the region.
Australia's biggest airline Qantas Airways is looking at a range of options to strengthen its international operations, including the possibility of basing a new premium airline in Singapore, according to sources.
Qantas already has a low-cost subsidiary Jetstar Asia which operates out of Singapore.
Virgin Australia was previously known as Virgin Blue until it rebranded itself last month as part of efforts to increase its share of the Australian business market off Qantas.

Hey, anyone know what a S3B is when we travel on an RJ? We are S3C and there were several "above" me on a couple of legs. I couldn't tell if they were Sky West retirees or parents.

S3B on an RJ would be S3CR unless its on 9E or OH. I've gone to the airport a couple of times having ignored the retiree block on the standby list only to discover the retiree/parents in question were from AS or OO and I dropped below them.
