FlyPelican ditches Virgin frequent-flyer program

FlyPelican… no more Velocity frequent flyer points.

By aviation writer Scott Mayman

Newcastle-based regional carrier FlyPelican has ended its partnership with Virgin’s Velocity frequent flyer program.

Partners since 2017, FlyPelican frequent flyers were also able to enjoy the Virgin Australia Lounge access at Canberra Airport.

But from June 1, that all ends.

Anyone missing points after travelling on FlyPelican will have until the end of June to lodge a claim.
