Capital One Just Leveled Up: Virgin Atlantic Transfer Bonus is HUGE!
Hey Friends! Phillip here from Points of Phillip, and I'm stoked to share some game-changing news for Capital One cardholders. If you have a Venture or Venture X card, prepare to overhaul your travel strategy!
The Headline: Capital One + Virgin Atlantic = Travel Magic
Capital One has just announced a new partnership with Virgin Atlantic (and Virgin Red!). This is a big deal, and here's why:
For a limited time, Capital One Venture and Venture X cardholders can transfer 1,000 Capital One miles and get 1,300 Virgin miles! A 30% transfer bonus is a great value.
Domestic Flights
You can often book Delta flights for fewer points using Virgin Atlantic than you would with Delta directly.
Virgin Atlantic: More Than Just Flights
Virgin Red opens a world of possibilities beyond flights. Use your Virgin points for:
Eurostar vouchers: Travel in style between London and Paris on a high-speed train.
Virgin Hotels: Stay in London at the Virgin Hotels from 45,000 points.
Cruises: Book Virgin Voyages cruises, including balcony cabins, for two people! Destinations include the Caribbean, Mediterranean, and more. Keep an eye out for sales to maximize your points.
My Capital One Strategy
Here's how I'm leveraging this news with my Capital One setup:
Capital One Venture Card: My go-to for non-dining, non-grocery purchases. I get 2x miles on everything and 5x on travel booked through the Capital One portal. I also get access to Capital One Offers.
Capital One Saver Card: No annual fee, and earns 3% cash back on dining, groceries, and entertainment (plays, movies, streaming).
The best part? I can combine the cashback earned on my Saver card and convert it into Venture Miles, effectively earning transferable points on a no-annual-fee card!
This transfer bonus is an amazing opportunity to maximize your Capital One miles. Take a look at Virgin Atlantic flights to find some great value!
