5 reasons to smile when you fly Virgin Airlines to the Cook Islands

I refuse to pay full price for flights anywhere and never more than $700 for my flights to Rarotonga. This year I’ve been lucky to get them through Virgin Airlines at $689 return from Melbourne.

All 3 airlines flying to Rarotonga from New Zealand and Australia are great. They all have flight sales a few times each year, some at the same time each year so you can be prepared the following year after saving up the cash first.

Each airline has their own quirks and reasons we choose them to fly with them but I have learned a few things about Virgin Airlines after buying full return airfares for my visit this year. I love flying with all 3 but will be taking advantage of Virgin airlines bonuses when I fly with them in a few months.

Here’s what you’ll get to enjoy with every Virgin flight to Rarotonga from Australia and New Zealand. These 5 reasons will make you smile a little more when getting a great sale fare :)

5 BONUS SMILES :)
