Creator's Key Takeaways

I think my favorite itinerary for the PS is the eight night Eastern Caribbean sty PTO Plata

the first time I Cruis on Virgin was in October of 22 yeah okay yeah they had been going for a year and a half or so that point yeah um so things have certainly changed but they kind of hooked me immediately

I have found that generally on the five nights folks are a little bit more open to making friendships to to yeah talking more than just about the cruise right

the solo programming is good I I think they could probably do some more
