Virgin Atlantic Flying Club

Virgin are a group of companies that you couldn't fail to have heard of in recent years. Richard Branson has the built his companies off the back of being funky and fun, and, most of the time, has done this by poking fun at the more staid British companies you'd have normally thought of. Virgin have their fingers in many things, from cosmetics to space travel, but one of the most recognisable companies, especially from a global perspective, is that of Virgin Atlantic. Virgin Atlantic (or British Atlantic Airways as it was originally called) had it's first flight on the 22nd June 1984 with just ... more

Virgin Atlantic Flying Club - I joined Virgin Atlantic Flying Club around 4 years ago, basically you get miles for every flight you take with Virgin Atlantic, you can also earn miles with Virgin Atlantic partners - eg Hotel Groups like Hilton and now even through shopping websites even eBay.
