Virgin Voyages, have a reputation of being a little bit different about
0:04
what's included when you step on board
0:06
and with the news of some changes happening in the world of Virgin Voyages.
0:09
When it comes to voyage fares,
0:11
we wanna take a look at what you can expect when you get onboard Virgin
0:15
Voyages, even with these changes in mind.
0:17

0:47
exclusive perks by booking with us.
0:50
But for right now, let's take a look at what's included with your voyage fare.
0:54
So we're gonna run through all of the incredible dining options that
0:58
are available, the drinks that are included with your voyage fare,
1:01
the wifi that you get on board,
1:04
And also the incredible entertainment and classes that are available too.
1:08
Stick around until the end where we're gonna go through five insider
1:11
tips of how to make the most of your included benefits on board.
1:15
So let's dive right in.
1:17
If you've never cruised before and you're unfamiliar with the likes of Royal
1:20
Caribbean or Princess or Celebrity, I'm gonna try and give you an indication
1:25
of how Virgin Voyages differs and how the price you pay includes a lot more
1:30
than you would see on the other lines.
1:31
let's kick things off with food and dining.
1:34
on Virgin Voyages the food offered in the restaurants and eateries
1:38
on board is really fantastic compared to other cruise lines.
1:42
something quite unique on Virgin Voyages is that there
1:45
are no specialty restaurants.
1:47
specialty restaurants are the nicest top end restaurants on some
1:51
other cruise lines that you have to pay an additional charge for
1:55
So for example, if you're sailing on Disney Cruise Line, there are things like
1:58
Palo, which is an Italian restaurant.
2:01
And because it's high end, you're expected to pay an additional
2:04
surcharge for that restaurant.
2:07
Well, on Virgin Voyages, there is nothing like that.
2:09
You can go to any one of the restaurants and it's always
2:13
included in your voyage fare.
2:15
So I'll quickly go over the restaurants that are included.
2:18
And remember, you book your own dining.
2:20
So if you wanna skip one of these restaurants, feel free to do that.
2:23
we're gonna start off at The Wake, which is the steakhouse on board.
2:26
This is a really elevated and plush experience with a very elegant and
2:31
sophisticated air., So expect incredible steaks like fillet mignon And also,
2:36
there are some incredible seafood options available, including a
2:40
really popular clam chowder starter.
2:42
Now let's move over to Extra Virgin, the high end Italian on board.
2:46
here you're gonna expect incredible antipasto, pastas and secondi
2:51
many of the options in this restaurant change depending on which ship you are on.
2:55
keep an eye out for the orange items on the menu to get a dish that is
2:59
specifically catered for your vessel.
3:02
now let's move over to Pink Agave, which is a very stylish Mexican restaurant
3:07
with really fresh Mexican food
3:09
and a lovely bar that serves incredible margarita's, Paloma's, tequila drinks.
3:14
then we have Razzle Dazzle, which is very dependent on which ship you are on, if you
3:19
are sailing on Valiant or Resilient Lady, you will have the original Razzle Dazzle
3:23
which serves up elevated American fare.
3:26
But if you happen to be sailing on Scarlet Lady, you will be eating
3:29
in Lucky Lotus by Razzle Dazzle, which is an Asian themed restaurant.
3:33
Or if you're sailing on Brilliant Lady, you'll be in Rojo by Razzle Dazzle,
3:37
which is a Spanish themed restaurant.
3:39
then we have Gunbae, the first Korean barbecue at sea, this is an incredible
3:44
experience, which includes a free drinking game make sure you don't skip
3:48
the incredible sides that are available in Gunbae like the Korean fried chicken.
3:52
and last but not least, when it comes to the main restaurants on board,
3:55
You have The Test Kitchen, which is an incredible tasting menu offering,
4:00
designed to look like a science laboratory.
4:03
This is a high-end and up market experience.
4:06
And again, each of those restaurants I've just mentioned are all
4:09
included with your voyage fare.
4:10
Before I mention the other eateries,
4:12
, you will need to make sure that you get a dining reservation
4:15
for each of these restaurants.
4:17
It's nice, of course, for Virgin Voyages to include these
4:19
as part of your voyage fare.
4:21
But it does mean that there's quite a lot of competition to get big
4:24
tables and the best dining slots.
4:26
So if you want to make sure that you're dining at a decent
4:29
time throughout the evening,
4:30
Make sure you get your reservations in as quickly as possible.
4:34
Now this will depend on which fare type and which cabin category you belong to.
4:38
we have a guide on vvinsider.com which will tell you when to log in
4:43
to make those dining reservations.
4:45
And crucially how you do it as well.
4:47
So don't miss out eating where you want to eat.
4:49
Go to VV Insider, make sure you don't miss out.
4:52
aside from the incredible restaurants that are included, there are a huge
4:55
number of other places to eat, which are included in your voyage fare as well.
4:59
Some of these are really fun and some of these you would expect to
5:02
pay extra for on other cruise lines.
5:04
for example, you have things like The Pizza Place.
5:07
Where you can get really delicious specialty, hand prepared pizzas that
5:12
are cooked right in front of you.
5:13
You can choose from a menu of curated pizzas, or there's always a daily special,
5:18
or you can just design your own and choose all the toppings that you like.
5:22
Very nearby The Pizza Place.
5:23
You also have Lick Me Till Ice Cream, which is the ice cream parlor.
5:27
And that's included with your voyage fare as well.
5:30
There are incredibly delicious dining options available in
5:33
The Dock and The Dock House.
5:35
So this includes things that are fresh from a real flamed grill,
5:39
and beautifully fresh prepared dips and crudités as well.
5:43
. Every afternoon, this switches over into Opa Hour where there are Greek
5:47
inspired options available too.
5:49
if you're looking for a very fun and casual dining option, there's The Social
5:54
Club where you can get hot dogs and chicken wings, popcorn, and candy as well.
5:59
Again, all included with your fare.
6:01
Simply ask and you will receive.
6:03
the last casual dining option I wanna mention is the Sun Club
6:06
Cafe, available on deck 16.
6:09
this is where you can get lovely, fresh, Asian inspired
6:12
poke bowls and bao buns as well.
6:15
Perfect little snacks if you're just soaking up the sun.
6:18
Now I can't step away from dining without talking about The Galley.
6:22
The Galley is very special on Virgin Voyages because Virgin
6:25
Voyages have had enough of buffets.
6:28
if you go to any other cruise line, you will often see a large buffet
6:33
with a huge amount of food that is often quantity over quality
6:37
and messy plates everywhere.
6:39
Well, things are a little different on Virgin Voyages with The Galley.
6:43
So instead of a buffet, this is a really elevated food court style experience.
6:48
when you order something from The Galley, it is freshly prepared
6:51
by the staff there are a huge number of options in The Galley.
6:54
From noodles to sushi,
6:56
to breakfast and burgers and toasted sandwiches, tacos.
7:01
each of these things are available in specific dining areas so you can
7:05
have a good old browse and order from each of these kiosks yourself.
7:08
Alternatively, you can simply sit at a table, put a little flag on
7:12
your menu, and someone will come over and serve you at your table.
7:16
It's a lot more sophisticated than a standard buffet, and the food is a
7:20
lot nicer than when it comes in one of those big troughs and you have to help
7:24
yourself using a spoon that several other people have touched, it doesn't bear
7:28
thinking about So If you've not sailed on any other cruise line, it might come
7:32
as a little bit of a surprise to know that filtered water is not included
7:36
generally as part of your cruise fare.
7:39
If you want to drink water that isn't just tap water, then you normally
7:42
need to pay for a water package.
7:45
So where you get several plastic bottles of water in the room.
7:48
Well, Virgin Voyages disagree with that whole ethos, and certainly they
7:52
don't want everyone wasting plastic just to get a fresh glass of water.
7:57
on Virgin Voyages, filtered water is included as part of your fare.
8:01
This not only will be in your room, so you get two carafes of
8:04
water in your room and you can always ask for that to be refilled.
8:08
So it's unlimited, but also at any bar and any restaurant around the ship as well.
8:12
If you ask for water, you are not just gonna get horrible tap water.
8:16
It will be nice filtered water around the ship.
8:18
But if you prefer to have a bottle by your side, if you bring a reusable
8:22
bottle, there are filtered water stations for you to refill your bottle
8:26
pretty much everywhere on board the included soft drinks don't end there.
8:29
all non-premium soft drinks are included as part of your voyage fare.
8:34
Now this is very novel compared to other cruise lines that will normally
8:37
charge for even a soft drinks package, which can sometimes be nearly $30 a
8:42
day just for a few Cokes and sprites.
8:45
on Virgin Voyages, again, the soft drinks are included with your voyage fare.
8:49
And thankfully this is not just limited to one area on the ship.
8:53
some cruise lines might boast a claim that you do get included soft
8:56
drinks, but you need to go to one area like the buffet to grab them.
8:59
You can't just order them from any bar.
9:01
But again, on Virgin Voyages, if you want a soft drink, you simply rock out
9:05
to any bar that's open and ask for it, and you won't even need to tap your band.
9:10
It will just be included.
9:11
So if you are asking for a Diet Coke or a Sprite, they'll just
9:15
hand that over for you and you can order that anywhere on board,
9:18
And of course that includes when you are dining as well.
9:21
If you are looking for hot drinks, you can get regular coffee and tea as well
9:25
in The Galley or at any restaurant.
9:27
The only hot drinks that you'll pay for are the specialty ones.
9:30
if you want an espresso based drink or a specialty tea, you
9:34
will be charged and that will go onto your normal spending account.
9:37
if you cruise with a drink in mind and want those specialty, alcoholic
9:41
drinks there is a way to save money on those, and I'll come onto that in our
9:45
insider tips at the end of this video.
9:47
So watch out for that.
9:48
that's your food and drink sorted.
9:50
Let's move on to wifi.
9:52
you are always gonna have wifi included as part of your fare when
9:56
you step on board Virgin Voyages.
9:58
The type of wifi and the speed of the wifi that you will get will
10:02
depend on the type of fare and the type of cabin that you've chosen.
10:06
as a very minimal standard.
10:07
Every single Sailor will at least get one device where they can log in
10:11
and use the wifi, and that wifi will be at least stable and quick enough
10:16
for you to stay in touch with people at home and those on board as well.
10:20
Virgin Voyages tout the basic wifi plan as you are able to use messages
10:24
and social media and light browsing.
10:27
If you need something better than this wifi plan, it's either
10:30
included with your voyage fare.
10:32
If you've chosen a Premium Fare you might get it with your loyalty plan.
10:35
So if you're in the sailing club and you have deeply extras, for
10:38
example, you'll get the premium wifi.
10:40
Or if you're in a Mega Rockstar suite you get the work from home wifi.
10:44
Now of course, there are a few options here, and if you are confused at all
10:47
about wifi, head over to vvinsider.com we explain all the wifi options you
10:53
should be able to figure out which wifi you'll expect when you head on
10:56
board and the options available to you if you want to upgrade So now let's
11:00
talk about the entertainment options that you get included with your fare.
11:04
And this is where Virgin Voyages is really stellar because the options
11:09
available to you, not only with the headline entertainment and the
11:13
cabaret shows, but also an incredible amount of daytime activities included
11:18
with your voyage fare as well.
11:20
And some of those activities feel like they should be charged for
11:24
because they're just so good.
11:25
let's start with those daytime activities.
11:27
these are generally run by the Happenings Cast.
11:30
if you are not familiar with the Happenings Cast these are 12
11:34
individuals that take on the role of the traditional cruise director.
11:38
instead of having some stuffy old guy telling you what to expect during your day
11:42
on board, you have these 12 individuals that will actually lead you through
11:46
and host these really fun activities most of these daytime activities will
11:51
be centered around group activities.
11:53
So these are either indoor activities, things like speed puzzle challenges
11:57
where you build a jigsaw within an hour and whoever completes it
12:00
first gets a free round of drinks
12:02
Or a huge amount of trivias that happen every day, including on the
12:06
longer voyages, competitive trivia, where your team accrues points
12:10
all the way through the voyage.
12:12
there are also other sedate things like crafting classes, like creating
12:16
friendship bands, for example.
12:18
Or if you're feeling a little bit more active, There are tons of really lively
12:22
options like VHS workouts, which is a fun and campy 1980s style workout
12:29
They're also doing a newer version of this, which is inspired by the
12:32
1950s, so that sounds really fun.
12:34
There are also options like dodgeball
12:37
and other fun lively dancing classes as well, like boy band
12:41
workouts and Broadway Boogie.
12:43
So depending on how lively and active you feel, there are tons of options available
12:48
for you And again, like I said, these are hosted by the Happenings Cast this cast
12:53
of people are really useful to get to know throughout your voyage because they
12:57
will be involved with and leading more exciting things as the voyage progresses.
13:02
expect to see them at nighttime.
13:03
Things like cabaret sessions, with The Hostess.
13:06
You'll also see them at the big club nights like electric or Club
13:10
Caliente, in quite a few of these club nights sailors are invited to
13:14
come dressed along with the theme.
13:17
for example, in We Fancy, you'll be dressed in glitter and gold
13:20
for Club Rubiks, which is a 1980s style club night.
13:24
people don their neon sweat bands and wigs and really get involved with the fun.
13:28
And of course that's all optional.
13:30
If you prefer not to dress up, don't worry about it,
13:32
you'll see more of the Happenings Cast on the Scarlet Night celebrations The
13:36
main thing about Scarlet Night is that everyone wears red the whole ship is
13:41
turned red And we celebrate the voyage with The Octopus Goddess played by
13:45
The Hostess, there is fun and exciting entertainment around the entire ship.
13:50
If you wanna learn more about Scarlet Night, either head over to vvinsider.com
13:54
where we have a full Scarlet Night Guide, or I have done a video on
13:59
Scarlet Night not too long ago, so I'm gonna link that in the comments.
14:02
If you want to watch my video about Scarlet Night.
14:05
Head over there and you can see what to expect.
14:08
Now there are so many Happenings, events and different types of
14:10
entertainment options that I'm going to point you towards vvinsider.com,
14:15
where we list all the entertainment and some of the entertainment options
14:19
are specific to your individual ship.
14:21
if you know you are sailing on Scarlet Valiant Resilient or Brilliant,
14:24
take a look at what a normal event lineup looks like for your ship,
14:29
because it really will depend.
14:30
Now, the final thing I'm gonna mention, is the included options
14:34
when it comes to health and fitness.
14:36
So all of the group workout sessions are included as part of your voyage fare.
14:42
So this includes things like HIIT classes, yoga, spin classes.
14:46
They also have an incredibly well stocked gym with the latest
14:51
high tech equipment some of the exercise classes are very popular.
14:54
In particular, there's a bungee class at sea, which books out quickly.
14:58
to avoid disappointment, make sure you get on the app as soon as you get on
15:03
board and book those classes in on the website we have a full guide to booking
15:07
and those first come first serve events So head over there to make sure you get
15:12
into everything you want to get into.
15:14
Before we get into our insider tips on how to make the most out of your voyage
15:19
let's quickly review what's not included.
15:21
So things you need to look out for.
15:23
so the first thing to mention are drinks.
15:25
alcohol of course, is not included with your standard voyage fare.
15:30
It's not an all inclusive cruise.
15:32
You do need to pay for alcohol.
15:34
Now, there are ways to reduce the cost of alcohol, and I'll come
15:38
onto that in our insider tips.
15:39
anything that you want to order off the menu that includes alcohol, you
15:43
are always gonna be charged extra for that, Other specialty drinks that are
15:47
soft drinks will also be charged for.
15:50
freshly squeezed juice, you're gonna be charged for that.
15:52
specialty coffees that are espresso based or things like chai tea,
15:56
are gonna be charged for too.
15:58
Luckily, what we found is Virgin Voyages don't push the prices of
16:01
these specialty drinks too much.
16:04
So the cost of alcohol, for example, will be similar to what you would
16:07
expect to see in a large city, not cheap, but not incredibly expensive.
16:12
vvinsider.com can help you figure out what the general prices of drinks
16:16
are, Other things that you'll pay for are the spa and thermal suites.
16:20
this is the Redemption Spa.
16:21
It is a lovely spa, but it is not included with your voyage fare.
16:25
You are gonna have to pay to enter the spa We have all the information
16:29
you'll need to know on the cost.
16:30
On VV Insider There is no launderette on board.
16:33
So with other cruise lines, you might have a launderette on a couple of floors.
16:36
On Virgin Voyages, There is no self-serve laundry service.
16:40
So you're always gonna have to send your stuff to the laundry
16:43
. this, of course, is charged for.
16:44
We have all the details how to use the laundry services and the
16:47
cost involved on the website.
16:49
the last notable mention is something that is touted as
16:52
included, but there is a caveat.
16:54
this is called Ship Eats.
16:56
that is the name that Virgin Voyages give to Room Service.
16:59
Now the room service is traditionally included as part of your voyage
17:03
But one big caveat here is that in order to get the delivery
17:07
charge for free, you need to pay for stuff over the value of $10
17:12
you can order free food from Ship Eats, which is great, but you will pay
17:16
a $10 delivery charge unless you're paying for things like alcoholic
17:20
beverages or specialty coffees
17:22
that total up to more than $10.
17:25
a little tip here is that if you do intend to drink, maybe a couple of cans
17:29
of Heineken, just pop them into your order on Ship Eats and your order will come.
17:33
You're just paying for your Heinekens that you would anyway.
17:36
But you can keep them in your fridge, in your room and you can
17:39
enjoy them whenever you like.
17:40
So now let's talk about those five insider tips of how to get
17:44
the most out of your voyage fare.
17:46
Tip number one is to book early for your included dining and events.
17:52
although your dining and events are included, they're gonna get
17:55
snapped up if you don't book them as quickly as you possibly can.
17:59
Especially on the busiest sailings.
18:01
You might find it difficult to get the dining reservation or book into
18:05
the events make sure you know when your dining booking window opens.
18:10
Your dining booking window will depend on the voyage fare that you have chosen
18:14
and also the cabin type that you are in.
18:17
if you are in one of the suites, or if you're a Rockstar or a Mega Rockstar,
18:21
you will be able to reserve your dining 120 days in advance of your sailing.
18:26
So that's a huge amount of time.
18:27
You probably won't have any problems finding the dining slots that you need.
18:31
but on the other end of the spectrum, if you a base or Lock It In Fare,
18:34
you might have as little as 15 days before your sailing to book dining in.
18:40
So make sure you know how long you have until you dining and jump on the
18:44
app quickly to book those slots if you are worried about securing the dining
18:48
option that you want because you don't have a huge amount of time, you might
18:52
want to look into upgrade options and moving to the Premium VoyageFair
18:56
Choice in order to get that dining booked and give you peace of mind.
19:00
But again, that is entirely up to you.
19:02
another way to control your spending while you're on board.
19:05
is to use your Bar Tab effectively.
19:09
your Bar Tab is an onboard credit that you can only spend on beverages.
19:14
So unlike your standard onboard credit that you can use for everything,
19:17
like things from the shop or shore excursions, anything, your Bar Tab is
19:22
restricted to things you're ordering through your wristband at a bar.
19:25
you can make a saving by using this Bar Tab credit, not least because you can get
19:30
Bar Tab included as part of your fare.
19:33
Sometimes there are deals and promotions that will give you a specific amount
19:37
of Bar Tab that you can spend on board.
19:39
If you want to check out the latest offers, head over to vvinsider.com/book
19:45
and we can have a look at any perks and offers that are available to you.
19:49
But otherwise, you can add Bar Tab yourself and you can actually
19:52
get a bonus for doing this.
19:54
So as an example, if you add $500 of Bar Tab, you get a 20%
20:00
extra So an extra hundred dollars for free to spend on board.
20:04
they're rewarding you for paying for drinks before you step on board.
20:09
How do you know how much Bar Tab you actually need?
20:11
vvinsider.com is home to the Bar Tab calculator where
20:16
we make things really easy.
20:18
you just tell us how much you generally drink on a normal day during your cruise.
20:22
let's say three glasses of wine and a couple of beers, and we do all the maths
20:26
for you to tell you exactly how much Bar Tab you should add to your account to
20:32
make the most savings before you sail.
20:34
It's a savvy way of making sure you're not spending too
20:37
much before you step on board.
20:39
So make sure you head over there and calculate that before you do anything.
20:43
building on Bar Tab, let's talk about tip number three, which is all about
20:47
how to get free drinks when you sail.
20:50
Now, as much as I said earlier that every alcoholic drink that you buy, you
20:54
will have to pay for, well, actually there are some free and complimentary
20:58
drinks to look out for, so I'll just go through a few noteworthy mentions.
21:02
during the sail away celebrations, The Hostess will raise a toast to the
21:07
voyage ahead and The bar staff will actually be going around distributing
21:11
free glasses of sparkling wine.
21:13
this is a brand called Saint Louis.
21:16
A little tip here is that if you want another glass, you
21:18
can simply go up and take it.
21:20
So do take advantage of the sailaway bubbles.
21:23
It's a really nice complimentary gift that Virgin give you to
21:27
kick your voyage off with a bang.
21:28
Another way of getting free drinks is simply to participate.
21:32
if you're going to events like Bingo with the Diva, for example,
21:36
if you are called up to participate, you might be getting on stage or
21:40
saying something on the microphone.
21:41
Sometimes during those events, you will be given a voucher for a free drink
21:46
that you can redeem later that day.
21:48
for anyone that is shy of guest participation, this isn't for you.
21:52
But if you do want to get involved have a good time during those events
21:55
and get a free drink for doing that, your bravery will be rewarded slightly.
22:00
So a free drink available if you are lucky.
22:03
if you are a boffin and really good at trivia, often there is
22:06
a free round of drinks available for those larger trivia sessions.
22:10
so if you enjoy doing trivia and you're particularly good at it, there
22:13
might be some free drinks for you there are a number of hidden options
22:16
to get complimentary drinks as well.
22:19
the big takeaway is that you need to participate, you need to go
22:22
along to these Happenings events.
22:24
You need to have a good time, and during that good time and getting involved with
22:28
the activities, you'll be surprised at the complimentary things you might receive.
22:33
So just go and have a good time.
22:35
Don't expect anything, but if you get something, it's a nice perk.
22:38
tip number four is all about prioritizing the hard to get eateries.
22:43
when your reservation timeline comes up and your booking window
22:46
opens, some restaurants are harder to secure than others.
22:50
notable mentions here are gun bay and pink agave.
22:54
the Korean barbecue And Mexican restaurants are generally smaller than
22:58
the other eateries, so make sure you prioritize them if you want a good time.
23:02
So maybe lock those in first.
23:05
The Test Kitchen, although it's a fantastic experience, does take a little
23:09
bit longer than the other eateries.
23:11
if you are booking The Test Kitchen, have a look on your agenda, have
23:14
a look to see whether you are in port that day, for example, and
23:18
really allot enough time for it.
23:20
Try and avoid Scarlet Night if you can, because you don't wanna be stuck in The
23:24
Test Kitchen if you know that there's exciting activities happening outside the
23:29
door or if there's a show you want to see.
23:31
just make sure you keep an eye on that tip number five is about the things you
23:35
can get by being part of the sailing club.
23:38
The sailing club on Virgin Voyages is the loyalty scheme,
23:41
and it's actually very generous.
23:43
the top end of this sailing club is called Deep Blue Extras.
23:47
with Deep Blue Extras, you get a ton of really rewarding perks.
23:51
you get a hundred dollars of Bar Tab included per Sailor,
23:55
generally $200 per cabin.
23:57
If you're sailing with your partner.
23:58
You also get two specialty hot drinks a day.
24:02
so those espresso based coffee drinks or those incredible specialty
24:06
teas, you get those included too.
24:07
and there's also a Sunset cocktail event where for an hour you get unlimited drinks
24:13
included in a really nice soiree with other blue extras members even if you're
24:18
not in the highest tier of Deep Blue Extras, but you qualify for Blue Extras.
24:22
That cocktail event is available for you as well,
24:25
and with Blue Extras and Deep Blue Extras, you get laundry service included as well.
24:30
if you wanna read about all the perks of the sailing club and how to get
24:33

24:38
cruise line and bring it over to Virgin Voyages, which you can do as well, head
