Virgin Red is currently offering a discount on redemptions for Finch Hattons, an all-inclusive safari camp in Kenya. Redemptions cost 125,000 Virgin Red points per night.

The Deal

  • Book award stays at the Virgin Limited Edition property Finch Hattons in Kenya for 125,000 Virgin Red points per night.
  • Direct link to offer.

Key Terms

  • Book by June 30, 2025 for stays through November 30, 2025.

Quick Thoughts

There are a few things to unpack here. For starters, the 125,000 redemption covers the cost for two people to visit and includes the following:

  • Stay in a luxury tent
  • All meals
  • All drinks (including alcohol)
  • Twice-daily game drives
  • Transfer to and from the Finch Hattons private airstrip

Redemptions normally cost 190,000 points per night and the cash rate appears to be ~$2,800 per night, so you’d be getting good value from your points, even if it is a large number of points to drop per night. Bear in mind though that you’re not only getting accommodation – all your food and drink is included, as are two game drives each day that you’re there.

You do have to get yourself to Finch Hattons though. The Virgin Limited Edition website recommends flying in to Wilson airport in Nairobi, then getting a scheduled or charter flight from there. One airline that flies that route is Safarilink; one way flights cost $265 each way, but booking round trip is a little cheaper as it’s a total of $425.

Chase is currently offering a 25% bonus when transferring points to Virgin Atlantic, so you’d only need to transfer 100,000 Ultimate Rewards points per night. We sometimes see new transfer bonuses mid-month from other transferable currencies, so perhaps we’ll see some kind of bonus to Virgin from Citi or Capital One before this Virgin Limited Edition award sale ends.

Something else to be aware of is that you’d be booking via Virgin Red rather than Virgin Atlantic. If you only have a Virgin Atlantic account, you’ll therefore need to create a Virgin Red account and link the two. You’ll then be able to use your Virgin Atlantic points for Virgin Red bookings.
