Reply To: Flying Blue / Virgin vs BAEC status earning

[Guernsey Globetrotter]

Definitely go BA silver as that is the path of least resistance to you and also offers the greatest return in terms of a status that allows lounge access etc.

Virgin give matches to people with BA status, whereas it doesn’t tend to work the other way around. Once you are BA silver you can get matched to Virgin silver if you want to explore their network too. Check out https://statusmatcher.com/company/virgin-atlantic?page-to=2
