Our Verdict

This is a rebate, not a discount so you need the full value in points to book. Looks like points will be returned within 28 days of completing the flight. Chase has a 30% transfer bonus to Virgin Atlantic & Capital One is offering a 30% transfer bonus to Virgin Red currently as well. One of the main issues with transatlantic flights with Virgin Atlantic are the carrier imposed fees and this rebate doesn’t help with that.
