Using Velocity frequent flyer points to book Virgin Atlantic flights
Oct 19, 2018, 03:08 AMSorry to be a pain: can you refer me to exactly where in the T&C i can direct the call centre to justify: "that such bookings are permitted by the Velocity T&Cs, and that you should only be charged for a single "Table 1, Zone 10" reward fare, not the points cost for two separate flights."...

You may have more luck at the Al Reem Lounge in Terminal 1, which is normally where they send Gold and Silver members flying in Economy.However, as ...
