I think the BA shopping links are more extensive than those available via Virgin Red, but as others have mentioned it’s more about where do you want to go and who flys there. BA’s network is far wider than Virgin and for that reason my go to is BA.
However I also have the Virgin card as I’ve found with my spending pattern I can get the BA 2-4-1 and the Bcys upgrade voucher with room to spare. By having a Virgin card it’s another string to my bow and adds another voucher. I don’t have any status and it’ll be interesting to see if the 75k limit impacts me.
