Creator's Key Takeaways

We have not been on the Scarlet Lady before. That's true. We've been on the Resilient Lady.

The first boarding time period is 145. Okay? And mind you, their departure time is 6.

We have been on 40 to 50 cruises. We have another 11 booked for this year.

Overall first impressions about everything that's happened today. Now, I'm going to give you an asterisk.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book restaurant reservations as soon as you make full payment to avoid late dining times.
Arrive at the port no earlier than 1:00 PM for a 1:45 PM boarding time.
If you want to dine at a restaurant twice, you must speak to a staff member to make an exception.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Different boarding process and timesKnow that Virgin does things differently; boarding starts late, so don't arrive too early.
No main dining room; all restaurants are specialty and require reservationsBook reservations as soon as you pay in full to secure preferred dining times.
