Aero The other day, Greg noticed that there is a bit of executive class awards space really well well well either well in Virgin Atlantic to Europe, particularly for those who seek to travel in early 2026. Keep in mind that Virgin Atlantic has adopted dynamic prices, so both the number of miles of miles and The surcharges are dynamic, but in some cases it can pay up to 29,000 points and only $ 254 for executive class awards to the United Kingdom and beyond.

Fast thoughts

The executive class price is now variable with Virgin Atlantic. It should not surprise that the best price is available in January, which I imagine is a low season in the United Kingdom. I am seeing enough availability of several cities different from London and Manchester for only 29,000 points and around $ 254 in executive class in early 2026.

While the search below shows the price of 1 seat, I checked twice to make sure the flight really has to have Nine seats In Washington-Dulles (IAD) executive class to London (LHR) for only 29k points each (as I saw in the seats. Aero).

Interestingly, in some days, the upper class (name of Virgin Atlantic for the executive class) costs less points than the premium economy (and only 2k more than the economic class)! Surcharges are a bit higher, but this is very important.

In some cases, I even found connection itineraries with advantageous prices, such as from Washington-Dulles (IAD) to London in Virgin Atlantic in the upper class, followed by one leg in KLM to Amsterdam (AMS) for 37k points one and some more dollars in taxes and rates.

You may find some reasonable offers to travel even further, although I found a limited number of exciting offers beyond reaching Europe.

Once again, you can search for this space on the Virgin Atlantic website quite easily, although I find the seats. Aero is more convenient, since he can essentially search anywhere from North America to Europe at the same time. That said, keep in mind that the tool explores in the seats. Aero shows results in cache, so he will sometimes discover that the seats they found a few hours ago may have been collected before reaching them. Even so, at the time of writing, I have only landed in one that was no longer available at the price they showed (and the price of that had only climbed to 32k points!). Obviously, that will change as more people reserve, but it is worth knowing that there is a lot of space at reasonable prices.

While it is possible that I do not want to spend January as a tourist in London or Manchester, this could be a very reasonable way to reach Europe for those who seek to ski / visit the family / etc.
