Virgin Voyages Cancels Three Europe 2026 Marvelous Voyages
Virgin Voyages has made changes to three Europe-based voyages in 2026, adjusting itineraries originally planned aboard Valiant Lady.

Virgin Voyages has canceled to three of its longer European itineraries in June and July 2026. These adjustments affect selected Marvelous Voyages, each originally designed as extended 14- and 15-night journeys with unique port combinations.
The decision appears to reflect demand, as these sailings were priced higher per night than other Virgin Voyages options, and interest may not have matched expectations.

Affected Voyages
All three canceled voyages were scheduled to sail on Valiant Lady.
- 28 June 2026 – Moroccan Marvels & Mediterranean Wonders – 10 nights – Sailing from Barcelona
- 8 July 2026 – Emerald Isles & Highland Wonders – 14 nights – Sailing from Portsmouth
- 22 July 2026 – Baltic Wonders & Nordic Nights – 14 nights – Sailing from Portsmouth
