*Double Status Credits Promotion
To be eligible for the Double Status Credits promotion (Offer) you must: (1) Activate this Offer between 12.01am AEST 17 June 2026 and 11.59pm AEST 30 June 2026 inclusive (Promotion Period); (2) after Offer activation, book and ticket an Eligible Flight during the Promotion Period and enter your valid Velocity membership number at the time of booking; and (3) complete travel on the Eligible Flight booked during the Promotion Period. An Eligible Flight is a Domestic, Trans-Tasman or International Short Haul flight marketed and operated by Virgin Australia flown between 12.01am AEST 17 June 2026 and 11.59pm AEST 12 July 2026 inclusive and booked and ticketed in a fare class that normally accrues Status Credits. For more information on Status Credits, click here. An Eligible Flight does not include: Reward Seats, long haul international flights to or from Doha operated by Qatar Airways for Virgin Australia, domestic flights flown as part of an international long haul journey; charter flights operated by Virgin Australia; and, interline or codeshare flights operated by partner airlines. If you book a Virgin Australia flight in the same booking as another airline (whether they are a partner of Virgin Australia or not) you will earn based on total miles flown (TPM). Flights which are earned at TPM are not eligible for this Offer. Tickets purchased on codeshare services marketed or operated by partner airlines or Virgin Australia operated flights combined in the same booking as a partner or non-partner operated flight are not eligible for this Offer. The Offer is for new Eligible Flights booked and ticketed during the Promotion Period, and changes to existing bookings made prior to the Promotion Period are not eligible. Status Credits cannot be earned on Velocity Reward Seat bookings. Bonus Status Credits will be applied to the originally purchased fare class. Any upgrades (other than payment of a full commercial fare) will not attract bonus Status Credits. Eligible Flights that satisfy the above eligibility criteria are eligible to earn double Status Credits than the Status Credits that would normally be earned for that flight and fare class. There is no limit on the number of times this Offer can be redeemed. Where multiple guests are listed on the same booking, only those guests who satisfy the above eligibility criteria are eligible for this Offer. You should allow up to four (4) weeks after satisfying the above eligibility criteria for the bonus Status Credits to be allocated.
In accordance with Commonwealth policy, this offer is not available to you if you are travelling for Commonwealth purposes. Members are individually responsible for complying with their organisation’s travel policy. If required, you may contact our Membership Contact Centre to have Status Credits or Points removed.

Why corporate travel programs love Virgin Australia
Award-winning service
Your people deserve some of the best in the air. Virgin Australia has built a reputation for a polished yet down-to-earth onboard service and has won Best Cabin Crew seven years in a row.
Value
Virgin Australia’s tiered fare structure, from Lite to Business, makes it easier to match travel needs with budget constraints. A quick interstate trip or a more premium experience, there’s options for every trip.
Choice
No two trips or traveller are quite the same. Choose from Economy, Economy X, and Business Class depending on the trip, budget, or how much legroom they think they need.
Network & frequency
With up to 293 flights per day between Australian capital cities, travellers have the flight options they need to do business. Virgin Australia’s codeshare agreements also open up the skies to more international connections with leading global airlines.
Sustainability
Align your corporate travel with your environmental goals. Virgin Australia is working towards Net Zero Emissions by 2050, with initiatives focused on reducing environmental impact both in the air and on the ground.
Lounges
Turn airport downtime into productive work time. Virgin Australia offers premium lounges in seven major Australian cities, giving travellers a well-earned spot to catch up on emails, grab a snack, or simply enjoy a quieter start to the trip.
Virgin Velocity Frequent Flyer Program
Business travel feels a little nicer when there’s something in it for the traveller too.
