How does $250 off your next trip across the Atlantic sound?

Thanks to Amex’s latest Virgin Atlantic Amex Offer, you’ll get exactly that when spending $1,800 or more on Virgin Atlantic flights to the U.K. and beyond.

Here’s how it works.

We spotted this offer on The Platinum Card^® by American Express but it may also show up on other American Express credit cards, so be sure to check each one if you have multiple.

The offer must be redeemed before September 30, 2024, so there’s still some time to decide how you want to use it.

As you can easily find round-trip fares to the U.K. in economy with Virgin for less than $500, a trip for a family of 4 would almost certainly trigger the discount and give you a nice saving.

And for those who might be up for treating themselves, leveling up to business class for $2,885 would trigger the $250 back, meaning you’d get a round-trip ticket in Virgin’s swanky Upper Class for $2,635. That’s great value for a nonstop flight in business class across the Atlantic.

It’s worth noting that flights must originate in the U.S. and be paid for in USD directly through Virgin Atlantic’s website. Using third-party websites or agencies won’t trigger the $250 cash back.

Using the Amex Platinum Card, to buy these flights would also earn you 5x bonus Membership Rewards points on your Virgin Atlantic flights in addition to the $250 you’d save with this Amex Offer. The 5x earning rate applies to flights booked directly with airlines or via AmexTravel.com (up to $500,000 per year).

Hot Tip:

When booking a flight with Virgin Atlantic, be sure to double check which aircraft you’re flying. You’ll find the best and most up-to-date Upper Class seats on the airlines fleet of Airbus A350-1000 and Airbus A330-900neo aircraft.

Final Thoughts

This is a great example of where Amex Offers can save you a chunk of cash on your next vacation.
