Am I Too Old for Virgin Voyages? After 4 Sailings, Here's the Real Answer
Source: Our analysis of the creator's lived experience, based on what they said in this video.
Creator's Key Takeaways
We've done four Virgin Voyages cruises, and we just got off a transatlantic.
Will you be too old for a Virgin Voyages cruise? Having done four of these already and a fifth one planned, we can tell you definitely not.
If you're in the 50-plus type of range, it's probably not going to be ideal for you on a four-night out of Miami.
We think you should skip Virgin if you say, 'Hey, I want a classic cruise.' Virgin is definitely not that.
