Virgin Voyages is now an official earn partner on Virgin Red, joining Virgin Atlantic and Virgin Hotels. While spending Virgin Points on sailings has been possible for a while, this update means sailors can now earn points back on their cruises too.

Earning Virgin Points at Sea

Sailors will earn 100 Virgin Points per person, per night on eligible sailings. To qualify, the cruise must be a full-fare (not significantly reduced rates unless offered by Virgin Voyages) booking made directly with Virgin Voyages or First Mates.

After the sailing, an email will be sent with a unique promo code. This code can be entered into the Promo Codes section of the Virgin Red app or website, and points will be added to the member’s account instantly.

For example, a 5-night cruise for two people would earn 1,000 Virgin Points once completed.

Extra Earning for US Cardholders

US-based members with the Virgin Red Rewards Mastercard can also earn points when booking. The card gives three Virgin Points for every dollar spent with Virgin Voyages, Virgin Atlantic or Virgin Hotels. On a $3,000 cruise, that’s an additional 9,000 points earned just by using the card.

One Virgin Account, Multiple Travel Brands

With this update, Virgin Red now allows travelers to earn Virgin Points across three parts of the Virgin brand — flights, hotels and cruises. Whether flying with Virgin Atlantic, staying with Virgin Hotels, or sailing with Virgin Voyages, points can now be collected along the way.

Virgin Red membership is free, and all points sit in one shared account, making it easier to keep track of what you’ve earned and what you can use them for later.

• Cruises must be full-fare and booked directly with Virgin Voyages or First Mates
• Only Central Sea Terrace cabins are included in points-based bookings
