There is confusion regarding benefits. The white card offers:
- complimentary companion reward flight - spend £15,000 or more a year on card purchases using your Virgin Atlantic White Card and you'll qualify for one complimentary round trip companion reward flight the next time you book a qualifying flight with Virgin Atlantic.†
- Premium Economy reward upgrade - spend £10,000 or more a year on your Virgin Atlantic White Card and you'll qualify for a complimentary round trip Premium Economy reward upgrade the next time you use your miles to book a qualifying reward flight in Economy, plus, spend another £10,000 in the same year and get another one.††
so the £10,000 Y -> PE is an
award upgrade.
Here is the link to the MBNA
black card:

This offers the doubled miles, 6,000 mile bonus and:
-
It's the fastest way to earn a complimentary companion reward flight*. Spend just £7,500 on the Virgin Atlantic Black Card each year and you'll get a complimentary round trip companion reward ticket the next time you book a qualifying flight with Virgin Atlantic.
- It’s the only way to get a Premium Economy reward upgrade**. Spend £5,000 on the Virgin Atlantic Black Card each year and you'll get a round trip Premium Economy reward upgrade flight the next time you book a qualifying reward flight in Economy.
