We're 59 and 60 and have 8 Virgin Voyages under our belt with 2 more booked. We have always found there to be a mixture of ages and on most of them the average age was 55-60. We've sailed Celebrity, NCL, Royal Caribbean & MSC but still keep returning to Virgin Voyages.

For late night munchies, you can't beat the galley!

We love Virgin Voyages because of their inclusivity. We're 59 and 60 and will be honeymooning on a B2B on Scarlet Lady in July, our 8th VV. Yes, these cruises are unlike any others (we've sailed with all the main lines) and are chilled, chic, funny and the entertainment is on another level. On our last VV there was a 90 year old so 80 years young will be no problem. The crew are super helpful so your mobility issues won't be a problem.

Yes, we've been able to book all the other restaurants with lots of choice of times....very strange!

We're getting married on the Sun Princess in June 2025 and am in the process of booking our speciality restaurants. Teppanyaki only has availability at 17.00 every day of our cruise where all the other ones, including Umai Hotpot, have multiple options. Does anyone know why this is? We want to book 19.30. TIA

Thanks everyone! We'll be boarding much earlier than our allocated time then.

It's from Southampton to Le Havre in France and back.

We are on a 2 night taster cruise on Virtuosa next week, our 1st cruise with MSC. We're in Yacht Club and our check in time says it opens at 12.00. Am I right that we can check in earlier that this as in YC? Can we also assume there isn't any sort of gala night on such a short cruise? TIA

Yes, thats what we had, 2 speciality coffees each per day.

We've just returned and I have the DBE but both of us could have 2 speciality coffees per day without charge

Just as an update to my original post, we just returned from our cruise on Resilient Lady from Athens. We arrived at the port at 1.25 and was in our cabin by 1.45. Its a great DBE perk!

They always find a table for solos very quickly.

Thanks for the confirmation 👍

Sorry my point was that I do have Deep Blue Extras which gives me early embarkation time but want to establish if we can board after the rockstars even if our boarding time slot is 3.30pm?

We're boarding our 3rd Virgin Voyage on Sunday in Athens. Am I right that as I have the Deep Blue Extra benefits that we can ignore our boarding time and board after the rockstars? TIA

We thought it was worth a go. It will be the 3rd of 4 cruises this year (3 on VV) so it was worth the risk and it was a good price.

Has anyone had any experience of this type of rate and if so, what suite did you end up with? This will be our 5th VV so thought it was worth a pont.

@dides Indeed, we have been told it will be held on The Wake View Terrace, which we're fine with. We'll be in the Med so it should be lovely.

We're getting married on the Sun Princess in June 2025 so we'd love to see as much as possible of her ahead of the big day! Have fun!

It's for a refurb. It's coming to the UK in February and we're visiting it for the day to see the changes.

I sailed in October 22 and June 23 and are sailing again in June 24. When do my deep blue perks show up as there's nothing showing on my account or the app? Tia
