I just received a member pack for the frequent virgin club and it claims their are 3 levels of member standard gold and platinum - does anyone know where I can find out what the different levels offer by way of beneifts?

Googling produces this page, which should answer your question.

Best wishes

Gold and Platinum are pretty much un-reachable. There are very few if any Platinum FVC members.

To reach gold you need to have booked at least 25 Virgin Holidays. Gold gives you a limo transfer to the airport and VS Flying Club Silver. Details here

Platinum requires you to have been on a staggering 50+ Virgin Holidays [:0] and gives you not a lot more than gold except lounge access (I dont think it's Clubhouse access though) at the airport when flying on VS. Details here

Really not worth trying to aim for gold or platinum as far as I'm concerned considering the huge amount of money you would have to spend to get very few real benefits out of it.

50 for Platinum!!!! they're kiddin.. how longs VH been running? In fact 25 for Gold is just as ridiculous. I just don't see how that's feasible.

... indeed it would be easier to get VA gold!

Perhaps it's just VH having a joke?

It's no joke :)

V Hols were supposed to be looking at refreshing the whole FVC and reviewing the tier levels. Nothing seems to have happened yet though.

You did used to also get a 'free gift' once you have booked your 10th V Holiday - although that appears to have stopped now.

I got a nice golf brolly with a 10th booking a couple of years ago since then have never used them.

My current V Hols MIA booking is my 10th (which I've had booked since early this year) - no free gift so far though.
