I am a virgin flying club member and i have been for 2-3 years.
I think it is useful to note, there are 2 flying clubs. The one that allows you to save money of package hols and the one which is just for flights.
I have the one to do with just flights and am a red card member. You can be a red, silver or gold card member depending on how many flights you take in a certain time frame.
I fly with virgin 2-3 times a year to the states. It is defintely worth becoming a member of the flying club. For flights i would have been taking anyway i have earned miles. These miles can then be used in a scheme called miles plus money in which you exchange some of you miles and get a cheaper priced flight as you use the miles as part payment. However there are only a limited number or miles plus money seats in ecah class per flight.
for example i saved up some miles and was able to travel premium economy for £600 instead of the price they were offering which was £1500.
So what i do is watch out for when virgin have special offers flying then normally then at times when it is more expensive use miles plus money.
You can also reccomend friends when you are a member and if they join and use there cards you get bonus miles.
if you save up enough miles you can also use them against the cost of a whole flight, but that takes a while!!
worth joining as its free!
