Creator's Key Takeaways

For Virgin voyagers is very much about being straight up and fair in terms of their pricing and in terms of their flexibility in tickets

It's about delivering a set of choices we actually consider ourselves a well-being brand and we invite our Sailors to kind of create their own holiday experience

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take a moment to walk around the ship upon boarding to identify key locations at the front and back for easier navigation.
Instead of heading straight to the buffet on boarding day, try the a la carte restaurant for a more relaxed start.
