Virgin America offering enough miles for a "free" flight in exchange for watching its horrible 6-hour film


How desperate are you to get 2,500 free EleVAte miles? Desperate enough to watch a nearly six-hour film about a miserably boring flight from Newark to San Francisco?

Eager to garner audience members for its horrible Dallas International Film Festival entry, Virgin America is offering enough miles for a "free" flight in exchange for viewing the movie all the way to the bitter end. Chronicling the trials and tribulations of flying the fictitious BLAH Airlines, the movie opens with the shrill echo of a baby screaming and kicking the back of a chair and only gets worse from there. Did we also mention the actors are creepy looking mannequins?

If you're brave enough to take the challenge, follow the hashtag #exitDIFF and tune in via the official screening page.
