Bonus Velocity Status Credits for VA flights - Book & fly between 12 January and 31 March 2026

Hmm. I went out of my way to do the 6 flights in order to retain Platinum. My review date is 2 May. I guess that if the bonus status credits don't credit by then, I'll be downgrading to Gold.

Great promo, Velocity... :rolleyes:

You can expect the bonus status credits to be awarded around mid-May, 6 weeks after the promotion ended.

Fly 2 flights = 45 bonus Status Credits

Fly 3 flights = 65 bonus Status Credits

Fly 4 flights = 85 bonus Status Credits

Fly 5 flights = 105 bonus Status Credits

Fly 6+ flights = 125 bonus Status Credits

I think I did four flights but maybe six. So I'll still need about 75 SCs by July to requalify. Should make it easily I think. As for next year, not much chance.

Ordinarily you might be OK because the activity date of the status credits relates to the date of travel.

But if its anything like last year...the promo ended 31 March...the status credits posted mid-April...and that was what was listed as their activity date. That is pretty unusual...if anything I'd have expected the activity date to to be 31 March.
