Spending points and rewards
Virgin Atlantic Reward and Reward+ Credit Cards are your passport to reaching reward flights, upgrades and more.
Earn points when you make a purchase using your credit card and find these on your monthly statement. Points never expire so can be saved up for that special trip or the treat you’ve had your eye on.
You can expect to earn a reward voucher when you make over £10,000 of eligible spends in a 12-month period on your Virgin Atlantic Reward+ Credit Card, or £20,000 of eligible spends in a 12-month period on your Virgin Atlantic Reward Credit Card.
How can I use my reward voucher?
The value of reward you earn depends on your Flying Club tier status when you redeem the voucher.
- If you are a Red tier member, your voucher can be redeemed for an upgrade or companion seat up to the value of 75,000 Virgin Points.
- If you are a Silver or Gold tier member, your voucher can be redeemed for an upgrade or companion seat up to the value of 150,000 Virgin Points.
Vouchers are redeemed in full when used for upgrades or companion seats less than the voucher value, but for any redemption over the value of the voucher, the remaining balance can be funded with additional points.
Your voucher value depends on your tier status when you redeem the voucher not when you earned it, so if you are a Red tier member when you earned the voucher but move to Silver it will be worth up to 150,000 Virgin Points when you redeem it. - Your reward voucher will automatically be added to your Flying Club account within 30 days of earning it and will be ready to spend straight away. You’ll receive your voucher as soon as you hit your spend threshold and you can keep track of this in the Rewards Lounge section of our app.
- Your reward is valid for 24 months from the date its issued. Your spend threshold will reset on every 12-month anniversary, ready for you to start your journey toward even more rewards*.
One of the only things better than discovering new destinations is discovering them with a friend. And one of the ways you can use your reward voucher is to redeem your points for a companion seat and take that special person along for the ride**.
If you’ve earned a voucher and want to use it, ring the Virgin Atlantic Flying Club contact centre on 0344 209 2722 to book.
*Additional spend over and above the target will not count toward the following year.
** When redeeming points or vouchers for flights, points cost varies based on destination and demand. Taxes, fees and carrier-imposed surcharges payable separately.
How can I spend my points?
You can use your points to pay less money for your next Virgin Atlantic flight. With as little as 3,000 points, you can reduce the cost of your flight and still earn points and tier points on your discounted journey. Not only that, you can pay for your return economy flight in full, starting from just 12,000 points.
