Etihad Airways is marking its 10-year anniversary with Virgin Australia and their respective frequent flyer programs – Etihad Guest and Velocity – by launching a series of offers for Aussie travellers including a major Bonus Points promotion, followed by a One Million Points giveaway alongside a rolling program of rewards throughout 2020.
Valid for bookings between 9-22 October 2019, and for travel until 31 March 2020, Etihad Guest and Velocity Frequent flyer members who book flights from anywhere across Australia and New Zealand onto Abu Dhabi or across the Etihad network during the promotion period will be rewarded with enough bonus points to fly domestically with Virgin Australia. V passengers selecting to fly Economy will be given 7,800 bonus points, while Business travellers will be offered 15,500 bonus points – enough for each to travel in Economy and Business respectively on a domestic ticket
The celebrations will continue with an exclusive One Million Points giveaway from Etihad to lucky Velocity members.
Robin Kamark, Chief Commercial Officer of Etihad Aviation Group, said, “We’re extremely proud of our longstanding alliance with Virgin Australia and Velocity Frequent Flyer, and are excited to be marking this milestone in spectacular fashion – not only with our Bonus Points and One Million Points campaigns, but with a series of exciting promotions in 2020.
“Since 2010, we have together carried more than 2 million guests on each other’s services. In terms of program members, we hope to see this continue to grow as we strengthen our ties and reward our customers with meaningful, targeted offers that are truly best in class.”
