    Thanks OP!

  • Ugly on 19/03/2018 - 08:33

    Thanks Render.
    Anyone know if this will "backdate" if I already have flights booked in the nominated period, or only for new bookings?

      no it will not

      • SirFlibbled on 19/03/2018 - 16:01

        Booooo. I'm in the same basket as Ugly. Have some flights already booked. Shame I can't get the points.

      Not saving. Gaining

      Gaining to save.

      I’ll gain an extra 40k points from the flight I will now book which will net me $600 in savings from the flight I will redeem those extra points on that I want later this year that I was going to buy outright, now can buy with these bonus points which will cost me zilch

      Also great to J upgrades

        Gaining to save.

        Not if it costs your more money.

        What exactly is the bargain here if you're not going to save any money?

        • swanny246 on 19/03/2018 - 15:34

          If these are flights that you were going to take regardless of the deal, it's a saving.

          If you're taking the flights only to gain the extra points, and no other reason, then it's not a saving.

          @swanny246:

          If these are flights that you were going to take regardless

          Other airlines could be cheaper. Nothing posted here shows me I’ll save money.

    Looks like it doesn't work on codes share either

    Maybe this could be an easy way for me to get to gold status

    • Dismo on 19/03/2018 - 09:50

      I believe it's for points only, not status credits.

    • fishybone on 19/03/2018 - 09:50

      Hmm you might be getting this confused with status credits

  • [Deactivated] on 19/03/2018 - 09:56

    This offer will work well for LAX flights, especially PE or Business.

    60k points if your a red flying PE MEL/SYD/BNE-LAX. Even more if your a on a higher tier.

  • DevlicK on 19/03/2018 - 09:58

    Too bad I booked a flight yesterday…

  • Sweet3st on 19/03/2018 - 10:04

    So sad, booked yesterday :(

  • Spizz on 19/03/2018 - 10:06

    Would the free Virgin flight from the Anz Travel Adventures credit card that you can attach your FF number to accrue these Triple flight points?

    Or does it depend what fare bucket it books into?

    • theblake on 19/03/2018 - 10:12

      You dont get any points on these flights.

        heh, believe it or not, I actually got points from these free flights ;)

        • Spizz on 19/03/2018 - 10:40

          Thanks. Thought I'd read that somewhere.

        • fattymattyd on 19/03/2018 - 12:34

          me too. and status credits. though I didn't get either on my AMEX free flight.

        • airly on 19/03/2018 - 22:34

          @Spizz: You read it right, but VA system is pretty crap, a lot of people reported to receive points and status credits for free flights that come with credit card

      • spiff on 19/03/2018 - 14:12

        I got both points and status credit on ANZ Travel Adventures flights back in December.

        • render on 19/03/2018 - 20:15

          Also got status credits and points for a flight in January

    • ViperAMD on 19/03/2018 - 10:12

      Thoughts flights don't earn points unfortunately.

    Cashrewards have double cash back on Virgin currently.

    Correct me if I am wrong but is it double the below rates? So essentially 4% for International? I’m not sure if the quoted rates are standard or double.

    Cashback on Domestic Flights: 1.40 %

    Cashback on International Flights excl. NZ: 2.00 %

      god dammit, just bought a ticket and forgot to add cashrewards. Handing in my Ozbargain membership fml

        Just reported you to the mods.

    • freestyle18 on 19/03/2018 - 13:44

      Cashback on Domestic Flights: 2.50 %

      Cashback on International Flights excl. NZ: 3.00 %

      • Jessie Ryder on 19/03/2018 - 13:56

        2% on international, just booked via cash rewards

      • freestyle18 on 19/03/2018 - 15:02

        Why'd I get negged, I took this right off

          Why'd I get negged,

          Some people around here don't like people posting facts, they are like sheep and blindly follow the herd, upvoting any deal post without thinking it though…

    • [Deactivated] on 19/03/2018 - 19:30

      Ok here is the answer from TA.

      Hi Gearup. We moved to better than triple for Domestic, and triple cashback for International just after noon today. This is only for a few days I believe.

      Our normal rates are 0.7% domestic and 1.0% International. We were at double (1.4% & 2.0%). Now 2.5% & 3.0% (better than triple). Hope that makes sense :)

  • Sweet3st on 20/03/2018 - 16:50

    Does anyone know. I booked late Sunday (Elevate). I can apparently change my flight online for no fee. Does this count as a new booking and so qualify for the points???

  • airly on 21/03/2018 - 14:01

    Am I correct that I could book a VA flight with travel agent and still be eligible for this offer?

    • freestyle18 on 22/03/2018 - 13:16

      Don't see anything in the terms that says it wouldn't.

      Only..

      "Flights can be booked via Virgin Australia website"

      CAN. not must. I've booked something on byojet so I sure hope so!

    • ilubbargains on 22/03/2018 - 13:19

      Let me guess, you want to book your VA flights through Flight Centre using Youi vouchers purchased at 15% discount?
