Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse Eligibility

All Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse lounges are open to airline passengers with an Upper Class boarding pass, specific elite members, eligible Amex cardholders, and those flying Delta One to or from the U.K.

Unfortunately, there are no day pass options, and Virgin Atlantic Clubhouses are no longer available to travelers with a Priority Pass membership.

If you’re wondering how to get into the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse, we review the options in detail below:

Upper Class or Premium Tickets on Select Airlines

One guaranteed way that you will be able to access any of those is by holding a Virgin Atlantic Upper Class ticket. Fortunately, many excellent credit card programs will help you earn enough points to book an Upper Class ticket.

American Express Membership Rewards, Bilt Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, Citi ThankYou Points, and Marriott Bonvoy points are all transferable to the Virgin Atlantic Flying Club program. The first 4 transfer with a 1:1 ratio, while Marriott Bonvoy points transfer at a 3:1 ratio.

This means you earn points with cards such as the Chase Sapphire Reserve^®, The Platinum Card^® from American Express, or the American Express^® Gold Card, and then use those points to book an Upper Class ticket with Virgin Atlantic.

In addition, anyone flying on a Delta-operated flight in the Delta One cabin, in business class with Aeromexico, or connecting to an Air France La Première flight in Paris (CDG) can access Virgin Atlantic Clubhouses.

Flying Club Gold Elite Members

Virgin Atlantic Flying Club Gold members can access the lounge and bring in 1 guest.

To achieve Gold Elite status, you must earn at least 1,000 Tier Points in 1 calendar year. For example, 1,000 Tier Points could be 2 round-trips and a one-way ticket in Upper Class, 5 flexible Premium Economy round-trip flights, or 10 Economy Delight round-trip flights.

In addition to complimentary access to Virgin Atlantic Clubhouses, Flying Club Gold members also receive perks like 60% more miles on Virgin Atlantic flights, Upper Class check-in, priority boarding, extra luggage allowance, and more.
