Creator's Key Takeaways

This is my fifth bailing in that sea group cruise, but going completely solo without a family.

Virgin, if you never been on Virgin, Virgin is not what you think it is.

By far one of the best sellway parties ever been to in my life.

I would 100% do this again.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Connect to the free Virgin Voyages Wi-Fi as soon as you board to book fitness classes and excursions.
โœ“Book specialty dining reservations as soon as you check in, about 45 days prior to your cruise.
โœ“Get good cruise insurance, especially for excursions not booked through the cruise line.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Traveling solo without partner โ€” It's a trial run to scope out the ship for your partner.
Using a wristband instead of a key card โ€” You'll get used to it; it's waterproof and serves as your ship card.
