Effective 01 June 2004, members booked in N class to/from Tokyo will be entitled to earn flying club miles and Tier points. Cape Town, Delhi, Johannesburg, Lagos and Port Harcourt already do !

We could be pedantic and say NRT.... :)

But cool, I can be a cheapskate to Tokyo and earn miles and TP's now!

Thanks,
Richard

Pedantic, actually you wouln't be because virgin's
fares are to the metropolitan area TYO and not NRT.
And they use LON and NYC for fares, and not LGW,LHR,EWR and JFK.
