Many areas that have a Hampton also have a Holiday Inn Express (part of Priority Club), and there you do earn 500 or more miles per stay with non-US-based airlines (I think also 1000 miles for VS but double check at www.priorityclub.com).</font>

Sorry, I checked myself today and Virgin is not one of the airlines that partners with Priority Club. But, in general at least (tho I don't know if this helps you), there are a number of other foreign airlines that Priority Club members earn 500 miles per stay with at EVERY kind of property in that program, including Express. Check:

for the list and see if any of them might be useful for you to collect.
