anyone booked virgin flights through skycanner?

I am looking at flights for Easter 2020 - VA prices are looking good but when I go through to booking page it's saying bags aren't included but doesn't give any options to add them. With BA it automatically gace me bags last time.

thanks

There should be an option for Virgin classic seats ( this includes bags)

Edit... Also check the prices on Netflights, it worked out cheaper for us to book through them for Virgin flights and their prices were for classic ( included bags & choosing seats)

I’ve just booked Easter 2020 flights with virgin. Phoned them direct and got a slightly better price than through Skyscanner. Got a better time flight too.

Anyone know how to work it out? it'll be an indirect flight x
Most of the sites that it comes up (for example netflights) with when you click on them it should show you the price at economy light and then the price for economy standard.

It's £45 per bag per flight so £90 for return

Just in relation to SkyScanner themselves we have used the site on numerous occasions for AA and Delta in the past and never any issue

Nerflights used to default to economy classic (I don’t think they even had lite as an option) but unfortunately that changed a few months or so ago. Their headline price on skyscanner is for lite now.
It’s a shame as they almost always worked out the cheapest.
