Virgin Australia has released that they will now be letting pets earn frequent flyer points for their owners in an effort to help families group together points. You can take your cat or dog with you and depending on your point status, they will earn extra points accordingly. Platinum members will earn 600 points, gold will earn 525, silver will earn 450 and Velocity Red members will earn 300.

As a member, you will still earn the same amount of points.
