Bar Tab Option Now Available on Embarkation Day
Virgin Voyages now offers Bar Tab purchases onboard on embarkation day, giving sailors added flexibility and bonuses. Find out more and use our calculator!

Updated: 30th May 2025 – Previously mentioned figures provided by Virgin Voyages were incorrect, the correct figures are updated below.
Virgin Voyages has made it easier to take advantage of its popular Bar Tab offer even if you’re already onboard. Previously, Bar Tab purchases with bonus credit were only available in the 24 hours leading up to a sailing, and only through select embarkation terminals.
But starting this week, sailors can now purchase a Bar Tab on embarkation day while already onboard. This change gives everyone one last chance to benefit from bonus drinks, even if they missed the chance to pre-purchase but at a reduced rate. Virgin Voyages is also currently trialing a VIP drinks option that may be expanded to on board sales too.
