Creator's Key Takeaways

The weather forecast for the Virgin cruise was not good, and we were heading into the infamous Bay of Biscay.

It was okay. It didn't blow my razled off.

I would give it a 7 and 1 half out of 10.

The captain's just been on saying the weather's going to be bad. Storm Aaron in the Bayabis take seasickness pills and it's going to be rocky.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check in early as Virgin check-in times are late compared to other cruise lines.
Use the iPad room controller for mood lighting options.
