It's easy to keep your Points fresh

Yes, Points can expire after a period of account inactivity. 

Your Points Expiry Date is determined by your most recent Velocity account activity – which can be a little longer (24 months) or shorter (1 month) depending on the activity you complete:

  • Each time you earn, redeem, or transfer Points to your Velocity account (other than Family Member Points transfer and Family Pooling), receive Points from a Virgin Australia Business Flyer member, or buy Points with Points Booster, you’re extending your Points Expiry Date for another 24 months! 
  • Points transferred to a Family Pool, Family Member Points transfers and inherited Points may only extend your Points Expiry Date by up to one month.

Once Points have expired, they cannot be reinstated. 

See membership terms and conditions for more information.
