Why Virgin Atlantic Flying Club points are worth what they are
Virgin Points are valued at 1.1 to 1.5 cents each in September 2026, and AwardWallet's member-reported average of 3.46 cents is the highest of any program it tracks. The difference is entirely about partner awards: ANA first and business class between the US and Japan, and Delta short-haul awards from a distance chart, return several cents a point, while Virgin Atlantic's own flights carry surcharges that can halve the value.
Virgin Points are among the easiest currencies to earn in the United States. American Express, Chase, Capital One, Citi, Bilt and Wells Fargo all transfer in and Virgin runs transfer bonuses regularly, so a specific award can usually be funded when needed. Holding a large balance without a plan carries little upside, especially since Virgin Atlantic has moved its own flights to dynamic pricing.
