Help!? Virgin Points

[alKna]

I have 200k virgin points but won’t use virgin again. Whats the best way to transfer to Etihad Guest?

You can’t, sorry.

But you don’t need to fly Virgin, you can redeem on 19 SkyTeam airlines.

And of course there are other ways to spend them other than flights but with a large amount it’ll mean eating a lot of Greggs Sausages rolls or paying for train tickets plus all the other stuff via Virgin red.

I believe Virgin points can be used for UK Train bookings using Virgin Train ticket app

Not great value, but Kaligo hotel redemption is an avenue to think about if you’re really stuck:

Can’t these be transferred to Hilton at an effective 50% value?

[Harrier25]

2 Virgin points = 3 Hilton Honors points.

Yep. But losing the value. Best bet is using them for KLM/AF or Delta west to the East coast.

No matter what little appeal it might have, go on a cruise. I did so against my better judgement 3 years ago and it is now the first reservation I make each year.
