Virgin Australia partnered with Expedia last year to allow Velocity members to earn points on hotel stays. This was a great addition to Velocity’s partner list and the ongoing earn rate was set at 3 Velocity Points per $1 spent.
This week Velocity launched a promotion offering 9 points per $1 spent for new bookings made until 18 February 2020. This is coupled with a sale, with up to 35% off rooms available.
To take advantage of this deal, book via: https://expedia.virginaustralia.com/lp/tvp-promotion
You’ll need to provide your Velocity Frequent Flyer membership number during the booking process.Â
Expedia is one of the world’s biggest online travel agents, with access to a huge number of hotels. Before you book though, make sure to compare the price with other websites so that you’re confident you’re getting the best deal.

Hi, We are travelling to US in October. Already researched hotels and pricing. Have been waiting for a point deal before booking. Is this a great deal or should I wait for something better? Planning on booking using Virgin Wallet to maximise points as well.
Hi Jeff, 9 points per $1 is as good as we see. The other option to consider is booking through Hotels.com – their loyalty program gives you one night free for every 10 stayed, so effectively a 10% discount.
