About Base

Base is the entry point of VoyageFair Choices. It is the lowest fare but also the most restrictive. It’s aimed at travelers who are confident in their plans and want a guaranteed cabin at the best price.

Key Features

Feature Base
Wi-Fi Basic for one device per sailor. Messaging, social media, and light browsing.
Dining Reservations Opens 15 days before sailing.
Cabin Assignment Cabin number confirmed at booking, but you cannot swap it later. Virgin Voyages may reassign cabins up to 7 days before sailing for operational reasons only.
Flexibility No date changes. No name changes. No cabin changes.
Cancellations Non refundable.

With Base, you know your exact cabin number when you book, but you do not have the option to change it. This makes Base best for travelers who care most about price and are happy with the cabin they receive at booking.

What Is Still Included

You still receive the core Virgin Voyages inclusions such as dining, entertainment, group fitness, and select drinks.

    Will level upgrade bid be available at base rate?

    1. Rob Sammons says:

      Yes it will be and it factors at the cabin level

    Are you kidding me!?! That’s what was so unique about VV…all inclusive except bar tab, spa and upgrades, etc. You cannot imagine how many people I promoted VV to because of it.
    Now, they’re going to be as cookie cutter as all the other carriers when it comes to plus,plus, plus. I’m extremely disappointed as I’m going on my 3rd cruise this year and was planning Iceland and/or international next year….most likely as solo.
    Definitely not an improvement..Please don’t do this…

      Yup I agree. Its going to turn into another ghetto carnival cruise. Instead of changing for the best, they are changing for the worst.
