Virgin Voyages has launched its Wave 2026 offer, bringing 80% off a second sailor plus up to $300 in free drinks (as a promotional Bar Tab) on eligible cabins and voyages. It’s a strong Wave Season deal if you want to lock in the ship, route and cabin you actually want before prices shift.

Booking Window: 27 February 2026 – 31 March 2026 (US East Coast local time)

What Wave Season Means

Wave Season is the period at the start of the year when many cruise lines launch strong booking offers. It usually covers sailings that are already on sale for the next year or two and it often includes peak dates. Because demand is high and cabins can move quickly, Wave deals are often used to lock in preferred ships, routes and cabin types before prices shift.

80% Off for a Second Sailor

Under the Wave 2026 offer, Virgin Voyages is providing 80% off the voyage fare for a second sailor when two people sail together in the same eligible cabin. The discount applies as a 40% reduction to both Sailor 1 and Sailor 2 fares. If four people share a cabin, all four receive 40% off their voyage fare.
