High Five is a new Flying Club reward – its our way to say thank you to members who keep flying with us, year after year
Members earn a High Five reward when they’ve flown with us in five different calendar years
High Five, now live
High Five is our new way to say thank you to Flying Club members who keep flying with us, year after year.
Our new way to say thank you.
Fly with us in five different years (they don’t even need to be in a row), and we’ll reward you with 12,000 Virgin Points to spend on future adventures. That’s enough for a return Saver Reward Seat from London to New York in Economy*.
And with Flying Club Red status, you’ll also unlock 10% bonus Virgin Points on all future flights after your first High Five – so your balance keeps climbing.
What’s next?
We’re counting back to 2021 – so if you’ve flown with us in five different years since then, your reward will be ready and waiting for you.
By April, you’ll be able to see how close you are to your next High Five reward in the new Virgin Atlantic app.
T&Cs apply.

2.2 A Stamp is credited only once in a calendar year on a Member’s account for the purposes of tracking progress toward the High Five Reward.
2.3 A Stamp is earned by completing a High Five Qualifying Flight (meaning a flight which must have a Virgin Atlantic flight number and be flown on a Virgin Atlantic aircraft) in a calendar year, with a maximum of one Stamp per calendar year regardless of the number of flights taken (a one–way or return flight will earn one Stamp for the relevant calendar year).
2.4 A flight under clause 5 is not a High Five Qualifying Flight.
2.5 Flights purchased using Virgin Points are eligible to earn Stamps providing they meet the criteria set out in these terms.
2.6 Flights must be completed (not merely booked) within the qualifying calendar year to earn a Stamp.
2.7 Notwithstanding clause 2.3, if you are involuntarily re-protected onto another carrier due to disruption affecting a High Five Qualifying Flight, the originally booked Virgin Atlantic flight will continue to qualify as a High Five Qualifying Flight, provided that you complete the journey.

3.1 To recognise continued loyalty, we will backdate qualifying flight activity to 1 January 2021.
3.2 If you have flown with us in each calendar year between 2021 and 2025 you will automatically qualify for a High Five Reward at launch, as you will have earned five (5) Stamps.

6.1 In the event of system errors affecting the crediting of Stamps or High Five Rewards to you, Virgin Atlantic will investigate the issue and make appropriate corrections as soon as reasonably possible.
7. General
7.1 Virgin Atlantic reserves the right to audit Flying Club accounts and to adjust, remove, or cancel Stamps or High Five Rewards that have been incorrectly or fraudulently claimed.
