Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm actually your unofficial Disney cruise line mom and this is my first Virgin Voyage after 20 sailings with Disney.

Never had to think about where the card was because there was no card.

And so it's almost inevitable that if you sit down to play a board game or play a game or do a puzzle that someone somewhere else is going to pass by and join you.

βœ“Take advantage of the 24/7 free food availability in the galley
βœ“Participate in team trivia and game shows to meet other passengers
