Meanwhile, Virgin has increased the bonus points that Elevate Silver and Gold members can earn, and has introduced a new pathway to elite status by
counting flight segments.
Not exact matches
Miles spent on upgrades will be
counted and debited per
flight segment.
A
segment is an origin - destination pair, so a round - trip
flight will
count as two (2) MQSs.
There is also a note in today's announcement that reward
flights will
count towards status — but they aren't clear if that is
flight segments or points earned on the real fare of the ticket you are using Elevate points for.
-- To determine your total number of
flight segments,
count each nonstop one - way trip as a single
segment.
