Creator's Key Takeaways

we just had a fabulous evening last night and we were able to welcome our granddaughter into the world

I'm not sure if we should have so let's figure that out today

the whole bar tab concept so instead of both people being forced to get a drink package

every cabin comes with Wi-Fi so you you don't have to pay for Wi-Fi separately

Creator's Tips & Advice

Call Virgin back and speak to a supervisor for boarding time accommodation
Check the app frequently for dining reservation cancellations
