This might be my favourite travel hack, and it’s back yet again… Tesco Clubcard is yet again offering 1,000 free miles from Virgin Atlantic Flying Club! All you must do is set your Clubcard account to auto-convert before 13 September, 2019.

Going forward, you don’t actually want to automatically convert your Clubcard points into Virgin Atlantic miles either, because you’ll want to save any vouchers and hope for a conversion bonus to Avios or Flying Club.

What you want to do instead is:

1. Step One, sign up for Auto Convert
2. Step Two, wait for 1,000 miles to post to your Virgin Atlantic Flying Club account
3. Step Three, turn OFF Auto Convert (make sure to do this well ahead of the next statement, which should be late October 2019)

Setting up Auto Convert is simple. Simply log-in to your Tesco Clubcard account, visit the “Voucher Schemes” section of “Account Management”, choose “Virgin Atlantic Flying Club miles” and enter your Flying Club membership number. Don’t worry, any existing Clubcard vouchers will remain as vouchers and won’t be automatically converted.

Even though I have yet to receive an email promoting this offer, you can find details here on the Flying Club website.

If it still works – YMMV but it often does – you’ll receive 1,000 free miles at zero cost to you. Pay attention to InsideFlyer UK and I’ll even remind you when to turn off the Auto Convert – so that you receive vouchers instead of miles, and can earn 1,000 miles again and again…
