Virgin Atlantic: Diana Jumper Returns & NordVPN Points Deal
Virgin Atlantic is making headlines with two distinct initiatives: the re-launch of an iconic Princess Diana jumper and an attractive NordVPN deal offering Virgin Points. Thirty years after Princess Diana was famously photographed in a “Fly Virgin Atlantic” jumper, the airline is reintroducing a limited edition replica. This retro navy jumper, featuring the 1930s pin-up style Flying Lady motif, is priced at £59 for adults and £47 for kids, with £10 from each sale benefiting Save the Children. This initiative supports Virgin Atlantic's decade-long partnership with the charity, which aids communities affected by disasters through its Emergency Fund. The original jumper fetched $53,532 at auction in 2019, making this limited run of 250 pieces a more accessible opportunity for fans, while also contributing to a good cause.
Separately, Virgin Atlantic's ShopsAway portal is promoting a highly appealing NordVPN offer, providing 99 Virgin Points for every £1 spent on new subscriptions until December 31, 2025. NordVPN, a market leader in online privacy, is being offered with a significant points bonus. For instance, a 27-month ‘Ultimate' subscription, priced at £155.20 (including VAT), could yield 12,771 Virgin Points based on the ex-VAT price of £129.33. This deal can be further enhanced by stacking it with credit card cashback offers, such as a targeted 10% American Express cashback on spends over £50, potentially reducing the net cost to £140 for the points and VPN service.
However, potential users should be aware of certain conditions. The points reward applies only to first subscriptions from new customers, excluding renewals or one-month plans. While the points value of 1.1p per point isn't compelling purely for points accumulation, the deal offers valuable online security. Moreover, the cost could be a tax-deductible expense for self-employed individuals or VAT-reclaimable for VAT-registered businesses. The article advises enabling cookies for tracking and suggests waiting for potentially better credit card offers, though this risks missing current Black Friday pricing. This dual offering highlights Virgin Atlantic's diverse engagement strategies, from nostalgic merchandise for charity to practical tech deals for its loyalty members.
