Travel is what drives Australian small to medium enterprises (SMEs) forward. It’s a ticket to fresh opportunities, and their path to maintaining those crucial relationships curated over the years.
The Virgin Australia Business Flyer program has been designed for SMEs who spend up to $300k per annum on flights and aims to deliver members better value, savings and rewards for their business travel.
Send your savings and Points soaring
Virgin Australia Business Flyer is free to join with no ongoing membership fees or minimum contracted spend*.
As a member, you’ll receive savings of up to 6% on eligible domestic airfares~. Want to boost your comfort as you jet-set for work? Upgrade to business class or stretch out in Economy X with up to 40% more legroom than a standard economy seat from only $52 one-way^.
Plus, double-dip on Points, and earn Velocity Frequent Flyer Points for your business and the traveller when you book eligible Virgin Australia flights*. As a traveller, you’ll be able to stack up Velocity Points fast, to redeem even faster – with one-way Economy Reward seats available from just 6,200 Points plus taxes, fees and carrier charges+.
Take your business further
You can take your business to the world, saving up to 10% on eligible flights with Virgin Australia’s international airline partners United Airlines1, Qatar Airways and Singapore Airlines.
Virgin Australia can also help your business connect with even more regional Australian destinations through its partnership with Link Airways. Get exclusive savings on Link Airways fares2 when you travel for business with Link Airways while you earn Velocity Points for your business and the traveller.
Offset your business travel costs with Points
Once you have banked at least 3,000 Velocity Points for your business, you can transfer Points to your personal Velocity Frequent Flyer account to spend on future business travel – offsetting travel costs for your business3 or perhaps indulge with an upgrade to Business Class for a job well done.
All this from a free program with no commitments and no ongoing membership fees. Remind us why you’re not already on board?
Your rewards grow as your flight spend grows
There are three tiers in the Virgin Australia Business Flyer program, so the more your business spends, the faster you are rewarded. As your business flies more, your Points earn rate and benefits gradually increase. It’s also the only business rewards program to offer status benefits at all tier levels.
Once you reach tiers 2 and 3 in the program, you’ll earn the opportunity to choose how your business is rewarded, with the option of selecting between bonus Velocity Points for your business, Lounge Passes or Business class upgrades4.
Live the lounge life
Access to the Virgin Australia Lounge is a cherished benefit for Velocity Gold and Platinum Status holders. But you don’t have to be a high flyer to get through the door.
As a Virgin Australia Business Flyer member, your team will also have access to purchase discounted Lounge memberships for just $3795 down from $450, as at 1 July 2024.
Fly better with Velocity Pilot Gold
As a new member of Virgin Australia Business Flyer, you can fast-track your way to Velocity Pilot Gold. When you spend at least $2,000 on Virgin Australia flights in the first three months of membership, you’ll receive two complimentary Velocity Pilot Gold memberships for three months6.
So, what is Velocity Pilot Gold? Think of it as a three-month taster of ‘full’ Velocity Gold. As a Pilot Gold member, you’ll enjoy many of the privileges normally enjoyed at Velocity Gold Status.
Start your journey with priority check-in7 and have the freedom to pack more with a boosted baggage allowance on most fares (except Economy Lite)8. From there, whisk your way through to the Virgin Australia Lounge – available at seven key airports – and skip the queues again with priority boarding9.
Fancy an earlier flight? With Fly Forward, you may be able to get home sooner at no extra cost10 when booked on an Economy Flex or Reward fare, or travelling Business. Just speak with the friendly Virgin Australia airport staff to see what’s possible.
Ask your travel consultant how your business can sign up to better value business flying.
