Velocity Double Status Credits Promo: June 2025
Earn twice as fast with the latest Velocity double Status Credits or double points offer.
For frequent flyers chasing status with Virgin Australia, very few promotions generate as much anticipation as Velocity’s double Status Credit offers. These promotions allow members to fast-track their way to elite status, often for flights they were planning to take anyway.
Here's the latest offer...
Double Velocity Status Credits Or Points - June 2025
Velocity is running another 'pick your bonus' promotion in June 2025, allowing members to earn either double Status Credits or double Velocity Points. The offer applies to domestic, trans-tasman or international flights marketed and operated by Virgin Australia, which usually earn Velocity Points and Status Credits. Because of this, Qatar wet lease flights are not eligible.
Rather interestingly, the offer terms do not specify a limit on the number of times you can redeem the double points offer. Although for those that select the double Status Credit option, the terms explicitly state, “there is no limit on the number of times this offer can be redeemed".
Here's how to pick your bonus;
- Make your selection here or via the Velocity app by 13 June 2025.
- Book an eligible Virgin Australia flight by 13 June 2025 (be sure to include your VFF number).
- Travel on the booking between 3 June 2025 and 29 April 2026.
