Booking one way flight with companion voucher and return on a later date

[chiraagnt]

Hi all,

As the topic says, I have a Virgin companion voucher and was looking at making a booking for December 2025. Is it still possible to use a voucher to make a booking for one way and to add the return at a later day when the seats open up then? Thanks!

No – if you update yourself via the recent articles and threads on Virgin’s recent changes, these included a set value for the voucher, depending on status, and also that there are no “half” vouchers any more.

You might get better value out of using it to upgrade 2 seats one-way under the new system.

The problem using the Companion Voucher is that you have to phone up (at least 30 min wait). So recently I have booked on line Cape Town going out using a total of 115,000pts (premium E) and have got Upper Class coming back and then used the Voucher 57,500pts. So I didn’t fully utilise the voucher (Red 75,000pts) but it is still a pretty good deal. Upperclass going to Cape Town now is just to many points now.
