If your Virgin Point account balance has started to rise, you may be looking for a way to use them for a nice upgrade in to either Premium Economy or Upper Class.
The Virgin Point system can be a little complicated for newcomers, and can be confusing.
We have put together a user friendly Virgin Points Upgrade Calculator Chart. Simply browse through destinations alphabetically and by continent to find out how many Virgin Points you need for your upgrade!
We have collated all the information for the 2021 to 2022 season, and show you how many Virgin Point you’ll need for an upgrade between cabins all the Virgin Atlantic destinations worldwide!
Fortunately Virgin Atlantic, unlike other airlines, allow you to use your points to jump two cabins. This means you can book a seat in Economy and use your points to upgrade yourself in to Upper Class – which is Virgin’s business cabin class.
Virgin have a great updated flight comparison chart for each cabin – check it out at Virgin Comparison Chart
