They&#8217;ve also increased the cap, so you can buy up to 200K points every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Virgin charges a flat \u00a315 rate for every 1,000 points, and there&#8217;s a \u00a315 handling fee per transaction. On the very top end you&#8217;ll be paying \u00a33,015 for 340K points, which amounts to 0.887 per point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Barring the occasional Miles Booster promotions (which isn&#8217;t on this time), this is the cheapest you can get for Virgin point. If you earn in a non-Sterling currency, for example USD, the deal is even more attractive given the recent GBP slump.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/skyteam-virgin-atlantic.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"http:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/skyteam-virgin-atlantic.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/skyteam-virgin-atlantic.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/skyteam-virgin-atlantic-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Virgin Atlantic is set to join Skyteam in the upcoming months so their point will potentially be worth more.
