Below, I outline the main ways in which to earn and accumulate Virgin America Elevate points.

1. Fly Virgin America

Earn five points per dollar on your base fare for Virgin America flights.

2.  Fly One Of Virgin America’s Airline Partners

You earn Elevate points with Virgin America Partner Airlines based on the type of fare you purchase and the distance you fly. So the farther you go, the more points you earn.  For example, and if your purchase an economy ticket, you will earn 40% of the miles flown and an upper class ticket yields 60% of the miles flown.  Click here to learn about Virgin America’s airline partners.

3. Use your Comenity Capital Bank Virgin America Visa Signature Card Or Your Virgin America Premium Visa Signature Card

When you use your Virgin America Visa Signature Card or your Virgin America Premium Visa Signature Card, you earn 3 points per $1 spent directly on Virgin America purchases and 1 point per $1 spent on all other purchases.

If you do not already have a Virgin America card, you can apply here for the Virgin America Visa Signature Card and here for the Virgin America Premium Visa Signature Card.
