New video: the basics of Virgin Atlantic Flying Club

If you’ve not seen it yet, last week I uploaded a new video to my YouTube channel on the basics of Virgin Atlantic Flying Club.

Jumping into the world of frequent flyer programmes is complex and full of so many variables - combined with less than brilliant IT systems, they can become difficult to get your head around. In this video, I focus on the basics of Virgin Atlantic's Flying Club loyalty programme.

Many viewers in the UK will be familiar with British Airways Executive Club but may wish to dip their toe into an alternative programme. Virgin's Flying Club is your best option.

In this video, I cover:

  • the basics of tiers and their general benefits

  • what are Virgin Points (miles) and the difference to Tier Points?

  • what does Virgin joining SkyTeam change about the airline? - who are Virgin's global partners?

  • how to find award seats on Virgin and all their partners?

  • finally, how to book the award seats

While that may sound simple...it is actually a lot more complex than you expect. I suspect many people may find this video a bit dry and long...but if you do find it interesting or have any questions, pop them in the comments section on the YouTube video.
