As with most cruise lines it is always cheaper to book on board than it is when you get home. Often it’s difficult to decide on the exact sailing you want to commit to. In this instance you will want to make sure you don’t lose the change to take advantage of the on board booking offers. To solve this problem, Virgin offers their equivalent of a ‘placeholder’ sailing, they call it ‘My Next Virgin Voyage’ (you might see people refer to this as MNVV).

Note: This offer has changed as of 1st February 2024 with a reduction in value when making a booking more than 60 days after purchasing an MNVV. Any MNVV’s bought before this date will retain the current terms and conditions for loot.

Exclusive Benefits

My Next Virgin Voyage offers exclusive benefits for those putting down the $300 deposit:

  • $300 deposit removed from your next sailing
  • $300 off the voyage fare
  • $600 on board Sailor Loot credit

Note: Sailor Loot is reduced to $300 for any booking made 60 days after purchasing an MNVV (When purchased from February 1st 2024) or if using The Lasting Glow offer.

How Long is a ‘My Next Virgin Voyage’ (MNVV) Valid For?

These placeholders will be valid for any sailing within 24 months of you paying your deposit. However keep in mind the exclusions above for after the 60 day purchase window.

If you’re thinking you will want to sail with Virgin Voyages more than once over the coming 2 years you can book up to four MNVVs on each sailing.

Combine With Any Offer

The best part of My Next Virgin Voyage is that you can combine it with the vast majority of other offers. So for example if you have any percentage offer you can still also add $300 off your next sailing.

The only sailings that are not eligible are deeply discounted rates (for example Sweepstakes, Casino, Charters, First Mate Rates, Lock It In Rates, etc.).

‘The Lasting Glow’ Offer

If you didn’t purchase an MNVV on board then Virgin may send out emails after your voyage to receive ‘The Lasting Glow’ offer up to 14 days after your voyage has ended, this offer is the same as the standard offer but has a reduced $300 on board sailor loot credit. Not all sailors are eligible so it is worth double checking on the Virgin Voyages website.

    If I purchase the MNVV can I use it when I book through an agent? Does thr currency matter or is interchangeable between $, £ and €? I jad a previous voucher and had to book through USA which is not prefereable when I am based in Europe.

    1. Rob Sammons says:

      Hi Laura, you can but the currency is locked in at the one that is purchased at

  2. Jake says:

    When looking at the MNVV change date of 1 February 2024, is that on USA time? I will be going on a cruise ex Australia on 1 February which will still be 31 January in the USA where the call centre is based. Thoughts?

    1. VV Insider says:

      Hi Jake, typically the way on board offers have changed in the past it won’t be at midnight eastern, it’d be a change on the day itself, so you’d likely find the offer has already changed. But head to Get Lost on deck 7 and they’ll help you out.

  3. DM says:

    Hi, is MNVV generally usable on all sailings? Some cruises aren’t appearing when looking at MNVV, but are definitely there for a regular booking.

    1. VV Insider says:

      Yes, the only restrictions with MNVV would be charter cruises that sell accommodations through a third party provider. If you’re having trouble using your MNVV on a particular sailing you may need to speak with Sailor Services.
