Virgin Australia Velocity has recently opened a
status match campaign for their direct competition, elite members of Qantas and now the promotion has been expanded to more eligible programs.
The status match is now open to all OneWorld member airlines as well as Emirates, Air New Zealand and also Fiji Airways elite members.
Velocity offers to match Qantas Elites to their Gold level for three months, followed by a challenge to retain the status for another year.
This particular campaign follows what you could call the “restart” of Virgin Australia after the takeover by Bain Capital and the domestic re-opening of Australia after a year of severe lockdowns due to the Covid-19 situation.
