After last week's announcements of dry dock details and the new restaurant
0:04
on onboard Valiant Lady, we thought we'd heard all the announcements.
0:07
There was out of the Red Hot Sailing Club Voyage.
0:10
It turns out they weren't quite done there and there's been a really
0:13
exciting announcement about an event that's happening next year.
0:16
that's gonna involve the entire fleet of Virgin Voyages ships.
0:20
What's more, there's been an indication about what we can expect next from Virgin
0:25
Voyages as we sail into the future!
0:27
If we haven't met before, my name is David from VV Insider,
0:31
which is a website all about Virgin Voyages, cruise
0:34
information guides and news,
0:36
We help millions of sailors every year plan for their perfect Virgin
0:40
Voyage and stay on top of all of the news that is going on as well.
0:44
Well, we've been keeping a really close eye on the current Red Hot Sailing
0:48
Club Voyage, Which has been happening on Brilliant Lady over the past week.
0:51
Last week we revealed a lot of details about what to expect on Valiant Lady
0:56
as she heads into a dry dock in May.
0:59
And we thought that was all the announcements there was.
1:01
Well actually, we heard about this fantastic new event that's
1:04
happening next year, which involves all four Virgin Voyages ships.
1:09
And today we're gonna take a quick look at what that means and how you can be part
1:13
of this really exciting one time event.
1:16
So the first whispers of this exciting announcement happening was that a
1:19
few sailors on board the Red Hot Sailing Club Voyage were invited to a
1:23
private event hosted in the Rockstar Retreat at the Beach Club at Bimini.
1:28
they were told that this would include an announcement and a special guest,
1:32
but as the day finally arrived, it actually became clear that Brilliant
1:35
Lady was not able to dock at Bimini at all because of wind gusts.
1:40
And yes, unfortunately this does sometimes happen.
1:43
Some ports do need to be skipped if the weather is in inclement and it's
1:47
gonna cause safety issues for sailors.
1:49
This is quite rare, but if a port is skipped, what they'll generally do is
1:52
put more entertainment on on board.
1:54
So it looked like for a moment, this extra special guest that they
1:58
talked about in this announcement letter was never gonna arrive.
2:01
Well, that was when the tender boats left Brilliant Lady and
2:04
headed over to Bimini to fetch those all important special guests.
2:08
The first glimpse of this very special guest came when the tender
2:12
boats came back, and Sir Richard Branson himself was waving out of
2:16
the door to passengers on board.
2:18
Brilliant Lady,
2:19
Guest on board.
2:19
Brilliant Lady, might have been lucky enough to meet and greet
2:22
Richard as he got himself on board in preparation for the big announcement.
2:27
This original announcement that was planned to be this private event
2:31
soon turned into a very public event indeed, as all guests were invited
2:36
up to the pool deck at 4:00 PM.
2:38
Where Abi the Hostess and chief marketing officer Nathan Rosenberg,
2:41
addressed an entirely packed out crowd on both deck 15 and 16
2:46
on a stage that had been set up by the pool.
2:48
They were teasing this announcement and asking the crowd what they
2:51
expected this announcement to be.
2:54
And some folks in the crowd shouted out some things that have been speculated
2:57
for a long time, including things like itineraries to Hawaii, a brand new ship.
3:02
but it turns out, at least for now, those speculations will have to wait
3:06
because Abi and Nathan introduced Sir Richard Branson and Chief
3:10
Operating Officer at Michelle Bentubo to make the real announcement.
3:14
This is where it was revealed that there will be four very, very special voyages
3:18
in February next year With the key event being on February 16th, all four Virgin
3:25
Voyages vessels will be converging at the same coordinate together at the same time,
3:30
which is promised to be an incredibly spectacular moment.
3:34
As Richard was making this announcement.
3:36
He also teased that there might be some very, very special moments to look
3:40
forward to during this very special event.
3:43
He mentioned, for example, that he'd been in touch with his friends at
3:46
Virgin Atlantic to see whether they could organize some sort of fly by.
3:50
although he didn't go as far as confirming that it does give an
3:54
indication that they are planning some big things for this event.
3:57
He did confirm that he will 100% be there onboard all four Lady Ships on that day.
4:04
it'll be really interesting to see how he pulls that off.
4:06
I am sure that in itself will be a very, very special moment.
4:10
It is really clear with Virgin Voyages getting Branson out to announce this,
4:13
that this is gonna be very special indeed.
4:16
And each of these four separate Voyages on each of the ships
4:20
is going to be extra special.
4:22
There may be guest artists involved, special talks about
4:25
the brand, things like this.
4:27
We will of course need to wait on extra details on that, but from the
4:30
way that they're branding and marketing these particular voyages, I'm sure
4:34
they will be very special indeed.
4:36
Here at VV Insider, we were given some extra special details from Virgin Voyages.
4:41
So if you head over to our article on vvinsider.com, we break down
4:45
everything that you'll need to know about these very, very special sailings.
4:49
Part of the information that we were sent included something that
4:52
was very, very interesting indeed.
4:55
There was a little note that said, during these Voyages, it's expected
4:59
that Virgin Voyages will announce the roadmap of the future of the brand.
5:04
This could potentially be what people have been waiting for when it comes to looking
5:09
at new destinations or even new ships
5:12
Now of course, we have no idea what this roadmap might contain, but it
5:16
might answer a few questions to those Virgin Voyages fans like ourselves
5:21
Who's looking to see an expansion of the brand over the next few years,
5:25
So we for sure are planning to be on board these Sisters at Sea Voyages.
5:30
We just need to figure out which one to choose.
5:33
So let's take a look at each of them.
5:34
So starting with the very first ship that launched back in 2021, Scarlet Lady
5:39
is heading out on a 5-night voyage on February 15th,
5:43
out of the four voyages.
5:44
This is the shortest one,
5:46
so this is the one for you if perhaps you just want a quick break in February
5:50
or you have limited paid time off.
5:52
Moving over to Valiant Lady, which is Virgin Voyages
5:55
second ship launching in 2022.
5:58
Leaving on February 13th.
6:00
This is a 7-night sailing from San Juan.
6:03
This is the one I would choose if I'm looking for guaranteed hot weather in
6:07
February, because sometimes the sailings from Miami do have a little bit of
6:11
inclement weather in those winter months.
6:14
Then moving on to the third ship Resilient Lady, which launched in 2023.
6:18
This is a 7-night voyage from Miami on February 14th.
6:22
Resilient is the one that I would choose.
6:24
if I'm looking for that nostalgically classic Virgin Voyages experience Because
6:29
of course, by this time, Resilient Lady, will be the only ship with the original
6:33
roster of Virgin Voyages restaurants, including the original Razzle Dazzle.
6:38
Then finally, we have Brilliant Lady, which is the latest and fourth
6:42
ship in the Virgin Voyages fleet.
6:44
This is a 10-night sailing from Miami heading out on February 8th,
6:49
because this is a longer voyage.
6:51
this is the one I would choose if I'm looking for an extended
6:54
vacation with a greater chance to do more on board and relax.
6:58
It also means that the big meetup at sea with all four vessels happens
7:02
towards the end of the vacation,
7:04
So it'll be a really nice way to finish things off with a big, big celebration.
7:08
but it doesn't matter which of those four voyages you choose, you'll
7:12
still be part of this fantastic meetup on the 16th of February.
7:17
Of course, if you're looking to get booked on any of those voyages, if
7:20

7:51

7:53
If you want to read more about them.
7:55
I just wanna say we've had incredible FOMO sitting at home Watching this Red
7:59
Hot Sailing Club Voyage go on without us, it looked like an incredible time.
8:04
There was huge amounts of free swag given away during this voyage.
8:08
There was also 12 free cruises given away across the voyage as well.
8:13
These Red Hot Sailing Club Voyages are getting better
8:16
and better every single time.
8:18
They used to be called Celebration Voyages, if you remember,
8:20
but it's really incentivized us to try and get on board one of these
8:24
very special voyages next year.
8:26
and if you are anything like us and you have FOMO about that too, those
8:30
two voyages that have been announced, One from Athens and one from Miami.
8:34
We have all the details you need to know about those two special voyages.
8:38

8:43

8:47
have happened over the past week.
