Virgin Holidays & Flying Points

Is there any way Flying Club miles can be used to upgrade from Economy to Premium Economy seats for a VIRGIN HOLIDAY? Seems straight forward if flying and booking with Virgin Atlantic but not sure if they can be used to upgrade a Virgin Holidays booking.
Any advice or help would be appreciated.

The simple answer is "no" unfortunately

A VH ticket is a heavily discounted one - you can get a better idea of the ticket types and codes Here

Consequently even if you try at the airport to upgrade using miles you will have to pay the extra to bring the VH ticket up to the price of a standard economy ticket which can then be upgraded using miles.

Its probably easier to book and pay for PE through VH - they usually have some good deals on this anyway and you get 10% discount off the fare if you are in the Frequent Virgin Club (FVC):D

Thanks for that, just thought someone out there might know a way of using them with a VH booking. Worth a try!!!
