Virgin enthusiasts, there’s a new way to enhance your travel experiences. The Virgin Red Rewards Mastercard® is set to launch this fall, offering exclusive perks tailored to make your voyages even more memorable. Here’s what you need to know. This was previously hinted at by Sir Richard Branson earlier this year.

In addition to the Virgin Voyages perks, the Virgin Red Rewards Mastercard® offers a variety of rewards across other Virgin brands:

  • Virgin Atlantic: Choose a Flying Club reward voucher for a companion seat or a cabin upgrade.
  • Virgin Hotels: Enjoy a complimentary night stay or a suite upgrade at participating Virgin Hotels.

You can pick between all of the Virgin reward perks up to twice yearly providing you hit the minimum spend so you could mix and match the Bar Tab with a complimentary Hotel stay.

    GREAT OFFER. But if this VV card is used during my Travels in other countries and pay in Euros or else, is there a currency exchange rate fee?
    Missing for Travellers is also if I book a cruise or flight and can’t travel due to medical or other reasons, an insurance covers losses of cancelation. It would make this card even more valuable. Any chances to implement?

      Unclear at the moment until we get full terms

  2. Lesley says:

    Will the card be coming to UK sailors too?

    1. Rob Sammons says:

      Likely not or it won’t resemble this type of offer, the US credit card structure is way different to the UK structure.
