The email subject line, if you’re looking for it, is “London is calling, and this time it’s on us,“ as first noted by Frequent Miler.

Getting the points should be pretty straightforward. All you have to do is sign up with your Virgin Flying Club account and link it to your Virgin Red account. You’ll then enter your promo code in the promo code section of your account, and your points will appear in your account after linking.

Here at Upgraded Points, we value Virgin Atlantic Flying Club Points at 1.4 cents per point, making this haul worth $84.

Bottom Line:

While $84 may not seem like much, when you consider Points + Money bookings start from as few as 3,000 points and economy flights from the U.S. to London start at 6,000 points, signing up for this promo is a no-brainer.

Other Ways To Earn Virgin Atlantic Flying Club Points

Aside from this promotion, earning points with Virgin Atlantic is incredibly easy.

Virgin Atlantic has transfer relationships with American Express Membership Rewards, Bilt Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, Citi ThankYou Rewards, and Wells Fargo Rewards. Points transfer to Virgin Atlantic at a 1:1 ratio from all of these programs. You can also transfer points from Marriott Bonvoy at a 3:1 ratio. You’ll get a 5,000-point bonus when you transfer 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points at a time — resulting in 25,000 Virgin Points.

Additionally, You can transfer Capital One miles to Virgin Red and then move points between the 2 Virgin programs at a 1:1 ratio.

Other ways to earn Virgin Atlantic Flying Club points include booking through hotel and car rental partners, shopping portals, buying points, applying for Virgin’s co-branded credit card, and more.
