Pension

Virgin Atlantic offer a contract based Defined Contribution (DC) pension in the form of a Group Personal Pension Plan, which simply means that you have your own individual pension Plan within the Group. The Plan is a retirement savings plan which is set up on a salary sacrifice basis so it is efficient and flexible in order to provide you with an income in the future.

You pay into the plan based on your pensionable salary and your chosen level of contribution and Virgin Atlantic also contributes to the plan. You also benefit from tax relief.

Staff Travel

We want our people to experience the fun, the excitement and the downright thrill of a truly fantastic flight. Whether you’re departing for a family holiday to Orlando, a weekend shopping trip to New York or you’re looking to dust off the cob webs with something more adrenaline pumping, we want our people to be able to satisfy their wanderlust.

With one of the best airline employee discounts in the industry, you’ll get the opportunity to take standby flights (return) on the Virgin Atlantic network, and reduced fares for family and friends. You will also have access to exclusive Virgin Holidays hotel and package holiday offers. And if that wasn’t enough, you’ll also get discounted flights across other airlines for you and your family.

Once you are on-board our staff travel team will tell you all you need to know.
