• How Long For Points Refund On LifeMiles & Virgin Atlantic?

    Posted by Nathan on March 2, 2023 at 11:45 am

    Hi all, if I cancel a points booking flight with either Virgin Atlantic or Avianca Lifemiles, how long would it take to get my points re-deposited back into my account?

    I’m wondering if I should book a second-choice flight for the time being and then if I see a better flight pop up in the T-21 timeframe, I can cancel and then immediately (within 5 minutes) rebook.

    The timeframe that I get the points back is pretty sensitive as I think the seat would get nabbed fairly quickly.

    When I canceled my Virgin Atlantic Award, it was an instant refund of the points.

    The taxes and fees took about a week or so.
