We finally sailed Celebrity Cruises and are breaking down how it really compares to Virgin Voyages, based only on our firsthand experience. From food and entertainment to staterooms, service, and sailing with kids, here’s what stood out.
When you start planning a Virgin Voyages cruise, one of the first questions people ask is what’s actually included and how onboard spending works. Virgin Voyages feels different from other cruise lines, so it makes sense to want clarity before you sail.
Virgin Voyages runs some really good deals. And every single time one pops up, I get the same messages. Does this stack? Why does this look different than yesterday? Am I missing something? Nothing weird is happening. Nothing shady is going on. This is just Virgin Voyages fine print doing its thing.
If you have booked a Virgin Voyages cruise and started reading emails, the app, or Facebook posts and thought… what are they even saying… you are not alone! Virgin Voyages loves their own language. Some of it is cheeky, some of it is confusing, and some of it honestly makes no sense until someone explains it. So let’s break it all down in plain English so you can actually enjoy your cruise instead of wondering if you missed a memo.
If you are dreaming of a short, adults-only escape filled with ocean views, unique dining, and relaxed island exploration, the Fire and Sunset Soiree itinerary from Virgin Voyages is one to consider. This popular route combines a day at sea with a full day in Key West and a relaxing stop at the Beach Club at Bimini. It is perfect for anyone who wants a refreshing vacation without taking a full week away from home.
My daughter attends a modified year-round school, which means her breaks are a glorious two weeks long! For her October break in 2025, we decided to shake things up from our usual Carnival adventures and try something new… a cruise line we’d been eyeing for a while: Royal Caribbean.
Virgin Voyages is changing! If you joined us on our recent live, you know we had a bit of a town hall moment. The questions were flying, the comments were rolling, and honestly, we were sweating right along with you. So let’s break it all down here in one place, because Virgin Voyages is making some big changes starting October 7th, 2025, and we want you to feel completely in the loop.
If you have been following Talk Virgin to Me, you know how excited we are to finally sail on Virgin Voyages’ Brilliant Lady! She is the newest ship in the Virgin Voyages fleet and she brings fresh updates that set her apart from Scarlet Lady, Valiant Lady, and Resilient Lady. We were among the first to step onboard Brilliant Lady and we are sailing her inaugural transatlantic. Here is your inside scoop on what’s new on Brilliant Lady and what to expect when you book.
If you're new to Virgin Voyages or you've been a couple times and still find yourself saying, "Wait, what?" then this is for you! I'm diving into the top mistakes I see over and over again. Let’s save you the trouble and get straight to it.
Think you heard of what happens on Virgin after dark? One of the best parts of being on a Virgin Voyages cruise is what happens after the sun goes down. It’s not just dinners and shows. It’s late-night snacks, surprise parties, secret bars, karaoke, and somehow ending up in the arcade at 1 AM wondering how the night flew by. So if you’re wondering what you’ll be doing once the lights go low and the music turns up, this one’s for you. Let’s talk Virgin After Dark!
Whether you’re dreaming of a relaxing beach escape, a once-in-a-lifetime family adventure, or a custom-tailored itinerary abroad, we make travel seamless, stress-free, and truly memorable.
