EY J Flight Deal July 2016

Boost Velocity Status Credits

Domestic connections on Virgin Australia are permitted en route to maximise Status Credit earning potential

If flying from the East Coast, instead of taking a direct flight to Abu Dhabi, flying on Virgin Australia to Perth and then Etihad to Abu Dhabi will net 720 Status Credits.

Likewise, if flying from Perth, backtracking to Sydney on Virgin Australia for an onward Etihad flight will net you 720 Status Credits.

Key terms

  • On sale until 31 July 2016
  • For departures 15 September 2016 to 31 May 2017
  • Not valid for departures on Friday or Saturday
  • Booked in Z class, so not valid for complimentary chauffeur service

Airfare deals are typically only available on limited dates. Fares may disappear quickly, so we suggest booking as soon as you are confident in your travel dates.
