Redeem Velocity points for award flights and seat upgrades to get the best value

Published 29 Apr 2020

Redeeming Velocity Points for award flights and seat upgrades is usually the most cost-effective option. Virgin Australia is affiliated with many airlines, including Singapore Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Virgin Atlantic, Etihad and many more. This gives Velocity Frequent Flyers access to award flights with lots of flight operators. Long-haul flights and Business or First Class seats usually deliver a higher value per Velocity Point than short-haul Economy flights.

But you can also redeem your Velocity Points for other rewards. Visit the Velocity Rewards Store to view options, which include:

  • Consumer merchandise
  • Retail store gift cards
  • Cinema gift cards
  • Priority Pass and Virgin Australia lounge access
  • Restaurant gift cards
  • Charity donations
