Earning Velocity points on a child ticket with Virgin Atlantic
I love the fact that VA allow children to earn miles and via family pooling faster accumulation.
Unlike Virgin Atlantic who offer nothing on child's tickets unless you are Gold.
So my question is, if a child flies on a Virgin Atlantic revenue flight (PE) can she earn velocity miles and status points?
Has anyone experience of this, presume you need to contact Velocity as there is no provision for a freq. flyer number on the booking online.
Thanks

If a person can be a velocity member in line with the program's terms and conditions then they can earn as per the program.
There appears to be no age limit.

Note that a child not travelling in a paid seat (e.g. infant ticket) is specifically excluded from earning Velocity points/SC's.
10.3 Points for Infants
10.3.1 Members under the age of 2 years who do not travel in their own paid seat on a Virgin Australia or Airline Partner flight will not be entitled to earn any Velocity Points.
