    100k miles is achievable but does not look worth it £570 for two people flights only + hotel approx £500 so still paying 1k for a weeks holiday. Think ill save up till i can get £1500 off a holiday at 3x rate change. thanks for replys

    in the t & c's the maximum you can claim on the Virgin Holidays Tesco deal is £525 off per passenger( £175 worth of vouchers @3x value) and its on full value brochure price

    The Clubcard Vouchers are exchanged for Virgin Holidays "tokens"
    ie £10 of Clubcard Vouchers = £30 rewards tokens

    The maximum value of "tokens" that can be used is £525 per passenger = £175 worth of Clubcard Vouchers

    I've used Nectar points for Expedia bookings on hotels.

    Yeah but its one for one. Tesco Virgin scheme gives you three times as much as the Nectar scheme.

    True but the Expedia/ nectar thing applies to whatever you book not just Virgin things.

    50,000 gets you Econ to Vegas BUT you have to pay £285 on top of that.

    75,000 Prem Econ + £375

    100,000 UC + about £450

    Then there's Miles + money

    2,000 Flying Club miles for an Economy fare
    Usually knocks off about £30-£40

    7,500 Flying Club miles for a Premium Economy fare

    15,000 Flying Club miles for an Upper Class fare


    Look at V-flyer.com for info as well

    im very confused
    how are you getting virgin miles from clubcard?
    i thought u could only use clubcard points to buy a virgin packge holiday
