1. Introduction Welcome to Virgin Australia’s Corporate Booking Portal; our online solution for client’s who wish to

make and manage bookings directly with Virgin Australia. This manual can be used as a guide, to

help you to better understand our corporate account set up and booking process.

2. Getting Started Once a corporate account has been set up and approved, our reservation system will forward a

number of automatic emails to the contact nominated. These emails include important information

about your account, which we recommend you keep. These emails relate to:

Admin User Username

Admin User Password

Corporate Travel Bank1 Username

Corporate Travel Bank Password

Once you have received these confirmation emails, you can login as the Admin User, and create

Travel Arranger and Super User profiles.

3. User Profiles Each Corporate user has the ability to access Virgin Australia’s Corporate Booking Engine through

their individual profile. Profiles contain one username and one password to access booking and

profile information. There are four different user types, as outlined below.

be used towards future flights. The fare rules of a booking, determine if a refund can be processed back to the

original form of payment or if it is stored in the Corporate Travel Bank. Corporate Travel Bank can be used online

via the Corporate login, or by calling Virgin Australia’s Guest Contact Centre on 1300 246 498 (Option 2).

Admin User Each corporate account that uses Virgin Australia’s Corporate Booking Portal has an Admin User.

This is the key account contact. We recommend, in the event of staffing changes within your

company, that these details be passed on to whomever is responsible and managing your company’s

travel.

The Admin has the highest level of access, but does not have the ability to make bookings. In order to

make bookings, the Admin User must create a Travel Arranger profile.

The Admin User is the registered company contact, and has the ability to:

Create Travel Arrangers

Upgrade Travel Arrangers to Super Users

Remove Travel Arranger profiles

Disable Travellers Book A Flight privileges

Update the company’s profile and user profiles

Give users permission to access the company’s Travel Bank account

The Admin User also receives copies of all itineraries booked by the company via the Corporate

Portal.

Traveller Travellers are registered with Traveller Profile by a Travel Arranger. Travellers have the ability to:

Make a booking for themselves (by selecting Book A Flight in their profile)

View their reservations

Travel Arranger Travel Arrangers are created by the Admin User. Travel Arrangers have the ability to:

Make a booking

View reservations they have made

Search by Booking Reference (PNR)

Search by first/last name

Super User

A Super User is a Travel Arranger, with the ability to book travel, and access the entire company’s

bookings (made by all Travel Arrangers). Every company should have at least one Super User set up.

To create a Super User, a Travel Arranger profile must be made, before being upgraded to Super

User status by Admin User.

populating information into the booking process.

email address.

We recommend entering the Travel Arranger’s email address to ensure that Corporate Travel

Bank is not accessed outside the business.

We recommend creating a Traveller Profile for the Super User or Travel Arranger and

bookings using Travel Bank via our Guest Contact Centre.
