Upgrade to Premium or Upper Class
Whether you booked your original seat with points or money, it’s super-easy to upgrade to any Premium or Upper Class seat with points. And you can do it at any time - as long as there are seats available. Point prices vary based on demand, just like money, plus you’ll pay the usual taxes and fees on top.
How to upgrade with points
To upgrade before you travel, simply log into My Booking and tap on the red web chat icon at the bottom of your screen to contact us. Alternatively, give us a call.
Or to upgrade at the airport, just head to the ticket desk or ask a member of the team at check-in.
Upgrades with Flying Club reward vouchers
We’ve simplified the Companion and Upgrade vouchers that you earn through your Virgin Atlantic Credit Card or Gold Flying Club status. From now on, we’re calling them Flying Club reward vouchers. Every time you earn one, they’ll give you a generous maximum points value which you can use to buy any seat or upgrade.
You can upgrade using a combination of points to cover the fare, and money to cover the taxes and fees.
If you’re looking to upgrade more than 24 hours before you fly, find out the cost to upgrade your flight.
If you want to find out about a possible upgrade less than 24 hours before you fly, or at the airport, we'll quote you a points upgrade price plus taxes and fees then and there if an upgrade is available.
f your original booking is a reward seat, you’ll pay:
The price in points of your new upgraded seat less the price in points of your original seat
Plus, any difference in taxes and fees between the original and the new cabin you’re travelling in.
If your original booking was paid for fully in money or using Points Plus Money, you’ll pay:
The price in points of your new upgraded seat, less the maximum Saver reward seat price for the cabin you’re upgrading from.
Plus, any difference in taxes, fees and charges between your original and new cabin you’re travelling in.
The amount you’ll pay in money will include a deduction of the carrier surcharge at the maximum Saver reward seat rate for the cabin you’re upgrading from.
If you upgrade your flight through "Your Bid" and are successful, you will not earn additional Virgin Points or Tier Points. The same applies if you pay for an upgrade within 24 hours of departure, including at the airport. Virgin Points and Tier Points will be based on the class of ticket that you originally purchased, and not the upgraded cabin. The points will be credited automatically to your account after travel.
