Virgin Australia’s Velocity Frequent Flyer program has just launched a double status credits promotion which will last until June 28, 2022.

To ensure you get the double status credits, you will need to register your frequent flyer number and make your bookings by midnight on August 10, 2021.

You can register for this promotion via this link.

Status Run Ideas?

For an easy and well-priced status run, our editor Tom found some excellent Business Class Saver fares from Adelaide to Canberra return via Melbourne for $573.35. These fares are available throughout the year, which gives some flexibility considering the current travel restrictions.

Booking Summary

Since the route consists of 4 individual flight segments, you will earn a total of 50 credits per leg usually; however, thanks to the double status credits, this turns into 100 credits per flight or 400 credits total. Perfect if you’re looking to maintain status!
