Hi all,
Australia’s other major frequent flyer program is Virgin Australia’s loyalty program, Velocity.
Well worth joining, and is free – use this link link to join
As most of you know, Virgin flies frequently between Australian cities, some international cities and code shares with a number of airlines such as Singapore Airlines and Etihad.
Velocity has three levels of membership above their entry level membership level (Red). They are Silver, Gold and Platnium. A key summary of the different tiers are:
- Red
- Silver
Status credits required: 250 and flown two eligible sectors
Status required to retain: 200 and two eligible sections within your 12 month benefit period
- Gold
Status credits required: 500 and flown four eligible sectors
