50% bonus points with Virgin Australia

[Ade]

... or should I wait for a DSC promotion?

Well, if it isn't urgent travel, you might wait for DSC

Also received the double points offer. Might use it as I have a couple of positioning flights to book, but it’s not a strong lure. If QF comes up significantly cheaper, I’ll use them.

plus free J partner fare (excl long haul) if you move over 500K amex, reasonable but IMO not worth parking 250K (+20%) in Velocity, unless you have a plan

I got it as a Gold but can't use it. I am flying again within the period but I can't book before the time needed.

Never got an email for this - partner got an email with double points.

As platinum I just logged into the velocity website and found a 50% bonus offer there which I have activated. Need to book a few flights tomorrow so happy to get the 50% bonus (so will work out 12.5 points per airfare dollar as platinum)

I had a 50% bonus points offer ready activate in the Velocity app just now. Did anyone else get one? It’s so soon after the double status credit promo! It seems Virgin are having rolling promos at the moment.

If you’re about to book flights to Tokyo it’d come in handy.

No 50% bonus points for me, instead I got this offer..

 

[Luke B]

I got the 50% bonus points (VA Platinum)

 

[Matt_01]

I received the 50% more offer which is no real incentive, had I received the x3 offer I would have booked 6 months worth of flights.

 

[StayGoldPonyboy]

Also got the Triple Points offer, pretty sure it was in the app yesterday and the email about it arrived this morning .... Celebrating the new Brisbane - Haneda route.

I have flights to book today, excellent timing.

 

[bullerdude]

Yep I got the 50% and family members got the triple points. Really not an incentive to book next years flights.

You can family pool or transfer their points over...

 

[Happy Dude]

Wife and I got only the 50% points offer but we've just booked in flights during the DSC / Amex promos, so won't be activating.

I found the amount of cash needed for one way rewards to Tokyo most startling.

$144 isn’t too bad IMO
For comparison
VA BNE-HND 59,500 + $144.31
QF BNE-NRT 68,400 + $196
