(25 Feb 2015, 5:09 pm)citaro5284 Quite a bit of backlash at them doing away with the current reward scheme and changing it to Nectar.

(25 Feb 2015, 5:23 pm)Tommy_1581 Won't Nectar points be able to be used on VTEC services, like how Rewards. used to be like?
People can use they Nectar card, at say, Sainsbury's, and then use their Nectar points against a ticket purchase?

(25 Feb 2015, 5:30 pm)citaro5284 Yeah, they will be able to use their Nectar points at Sainsburys and tickets on VTEC, however you will need to spend quite a bit more on tickets to get the same free tickets through the current Reward scheme.

BREAKING NEWS: According to WNXX 91124 is the first to receive the Virgin EC livery. No image as yet.
SPECIAL LIVERIES: 91110 and 91111 will retain their current liveries. Rumours are going around suggesting that 91101 may be going into a Virgin-style Flying Scotsman livery.
Last day to buy tickets, so you benefit from Rewards rather than Nectar.
Remember, you get points for postage - so worth paying the £1 charge, knowing the point will be added to your account. Handy if you just fall short.
The First Class lounges cost a fiver, but again, you get points added to your account.
Then come September when all the points are used up, you can transfer to BA and get their points for London flights.
Unless it has changed, two round trips bring a free single. The points are based per flight, rather than price paid.
