Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been on two. I have one upcoming next month, which I'm super excited about.

I always recommend you booking with a first mate. I book my Virgin Voyages cruises with Bridget Flowers.

Lock it in rates are a great option.

Always have a first mate. Don't just book it by yourself because you're not going to have that advocate for you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider lock it in rates for discounted prices, but be aware of restrictions.
Use the hold option to think about your booking overnight instead of impulse booking.
Check for 10% pay in full discount if paid before a certain amount of days before sailing.
