Virtuoso and Virgin Galactic have embarked on a strategic partnership to make a limited number of spaceflight experience seats available to the luxury and experiential travel network’s worldwide client base.
Virtuoso travel advisors will have exclusive access to a limited number of reservations within Virgin Galactic’s first 1,000 seats at the standard price of $450,000pp.
The Virgin Galactic flight system takes off and lands on a runway and allows passengers to experience weightlessness and breathtaking views of Earth, all in unparalleled comfort.
In the lead-up to space flight, Future Astronauts enjoy access to exclusive events, trips and activities around the world, culminating with a multi-day, all-inclusive astronaut training and hospitality program for the passenger and three guests at Virgin Galactic’s planned innovative campus.
Virgin Galactic is opening the door to a new space age and this agreement makes the wonder and awe of space travel accessible through Virtuoso’s portfolio of top-tier luxury experiences, Virtuoso Chairman and CEO Matthew D. Upchurch said.
“As a Future Astronaut myself, I can speak firsthand to the curated, high-touch and one-of-a-kind journey Virgin Galactic offers, as well as the community it cultivates,” he said.
“For our advisors who have clients seeking pioneering, transformational travel, a Virgin Galactic spaceflight is the ultimate experience.”
Virgin Galactic President & Chief Business Officer, Commercial and Consumer Operations Blair Rich said Virtuoso’s leading role in the luxury experiential travel category makes them the ideal strategic partner to expand their reach in this sector.
“We are excited to offer this limited quantity of tickets to Virtuoso clients and to connect with those who are searching for meaningful, deeply transformational travel experiences,” he said.
