Just over two years ago, Alaska Airlines bested JetBlue Airways in a battle to acquire Virgin America. The final Virgin America flights departed last night and REDWOOD (Virgin America's call sign) will vanish when VX 1182 lands at Newark this morning, with all subsequent flights operating as Alaska Airlines flights. The last three Virgin America flights departed starting at 9:30 pm PDT:
