Just as one could continue to fly VS, and apply for the Virgin Atlantic credit card which is issued by Bank of America.

BA requires the BAEC account be registered in the same country as a co-branded credit card. This means the same BAEC account cannot be linked to both a UK and USA-issued BA credit card. To my knowledge, Virgin Atlantic has no similar restriction.
