They are experts in travel, and this guide can help you to become one, too. Learn how to manage your Virgin Holidays booking and make the most of their resources. The lead passenger can manage the booking at any time as long as they have the number.

Manage Virgin Holidays Booking Online

When you book with Virgin Holidays online, you can easily manage your own booking online. Simply log in with the booking reference and lead passenger details to access your Virgin Holidays booking. You will be able to view the details, make payments, download documents, and update your booking with amendments or additional options.

You might want to make changes to your booking after receiving the confirmation invoice from Virgin Holidays. Any changes are subject to availability and will, of course, require further payment. This will include an administrative fee of at least £50 per person, plus the costs of the new services. The later that you make amendments, the more they are likely to cost. Some alterations may not be possible at all, depending on the rules of the supplier. You can transfer bookings to another person, but if you want to change all the names on the booking it will count as a full cancellation. The lead passenger can cancel the booking at any time, at the risk of incurring cancellation charges.

Virgin Holidays Payment

The most significant aspect of managing your holiday, once the planning is done, is actually paying for it. Holidays can be too expensive to pay for all at once. This is why Virgin Holidays allows you to put down an initial deposit and pay the remaining balance however you choose. This only applies when you book in advance, as you must pay the full balance by 12 weeks before your holiday departure date. If you fail to manage this, then they will cancel your booking. The standard deposit is £175 per person on the booking. You can then pay the rest off in small chunks as and when you are able to. You can even set up a Direct Debit to make a set monthly payment towards your holiday. To manage your payments, including changing your payment method, log in as above or contact Virgin Holidays.

Virgin Holidays Cancellation

If you need to cancel your Virgin Holidays booking, it is best to do it as soon as possible. The later you leave it to cancel, the more money you will end up losing. You will need to notify Virgin Holidays in writing that you want to cancel the booking. There will always be a circumstantial cancellation fee applicable. The only exception is when your holiday is affected significantly by unavoidable extraordinary changes. Otherwise, in all cases, you will have to forfeit at least your deposit. Cancellation charges are payable immediately upon confirmation of Virgin Holidays cancelling the booking. The amount that you will have to pay for this depends on how far in advance you cancel it.

You might save money by transferring the holiday into someone else’s name. However, as mentioned, if you change the names of every person on the booking then Virgin Holidays will treat this as a cancellation you have to pay for.
