“Virtuoso is excited to welcome Virgin Galactic back into our partner portfolio and to offer our clients a travel experience like no other,” said Matthew D. Upchurch, chairman and CEO, Virtuoso. “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. Travel transforms us and pushes us out of our comfort zone. For our advisors who have clients seeking pioneering, transformation travel, a Virgin Galactic spaceflight is the ultimate experience.”

Virgin Galactic’s flight system takes off and lands on a runway while allowing passengers to experience weightlessness and breathtaking views of Earth. Before the flight, future travelers can access the membership community, with exclusive events, trips and activities around the world. It all ends in a multiday, all-inclusive astronaut training and hospitality program for the passenger and three guests at Virgin Galactic’s innovative campus.

Virgin Galactic is now part of Virtuoso’s portfolio of more than 2,200 luxury travel partners. Virtuoso travel advisors have access to a limited number of reservations within Virgin Galactic’s first 1,000 seats at the standard price of $450,000.
