Virgin Holidays launch new currency

The Branson
APRIL FOOL!

We hope you liked our little jape this morning – but if you're still unsure, we can confirm our 'Branson' currency story today was an April Fool's Day ruse.

 

As the UK's leading long haul holiday company, we deliver amazing holiday experiences to all our customers, but even we can't launch a new currency!

 

Adventure Holidays

The Branson

No one likes paying over the odds for things while they're away, and we want to ensure you're getting the best possible value. The Branson, which will be accepted as legal tender from tomorrow, 2nd April, across all of our resorts, will mean you can forget about fluctuating exchange rates – something 64 per cent of you told us determined your choice of destination.

Available initially in printed denominations of 10, 20 and 50, and featuring images of our holidays – including city breaks, cruises and the beach – the currency will be worth the equivalent of two British Pounds for every Branson spent. They will be available for purchase through one of 100 retail outlets nationwide, as well as in resort on arrival.

Sir Richard Branson himself, whose face adorns the new notes, has said: "We've listened to our customers and are shaking up the travel industry once again. With the 'Branson' we will ensure Virgin Holidays' customers' money goes further on holiday, meaning they really are receiving the ultimate Rockstar Service."
