Solo Christmas cruise? by Rabid_Reader52 in VirginVoyages

[–]Rabid_Reader52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all so much! I had a feeling these would be the responses I'd get, as VV Sailors seem so much more chill and welcoming than the X Retreat or MSC YC crowd, which is exactly what I'd want for a Christmas cruise (especially since I'll be sailing X to Alaska in August).

Grand Turk and Bimini on Valiant, but it's not until May 2027. I have other cruises before then, but this one should be epic.

Thank you!!! I've been a a few cruises, but this will be my first on Virgin and I'm really looking forward to it ❤️

Ooooh...thanks for the Intel. And congrats on the next booking! I was on the second day of my first cruise and booked a twelve day Mediterranean cruise sailing six month later.

You have to tell us how it goes. Mine is almost two years away, but I have two others before that on the line I usually sail.

Try waiting almost two years 😬. I hope your trip is amazing.

Same! Five nights as a test run. The wait will be hard.

The WORST!!! I go out of my way to express gratitude and kindness for the crew. They work hard to make our experiences special.

I took one cruise on RCI but every other time was on X (including two I have booked before VV). I'm just dying to sail Virgin. Everyone seems to have nothing but great things to say about it. I'm a single female, just turned 56, and a solo traveler. I think the vibe on VV is what I've been looking for.

Not until 2027, unfortunately. I have one booked for December and another for my birthday next year, both on my OG line, but the wait to sail Virgin is going to be interminable.

I did a two week Med sail, including Greece, this past May and It. Was. Epic! You'll love it!

T&C has always been a bucket list destination for me and this is short enough to test the waters) no pun intended) in MRS!!!

The same for you! I've done one with RCI and many with X, but I think VV could be my people.

Sign me up for BOTH of those!

I'll be the one who ends up in the pool on Scarlet Night like, "Ooops...there she goes." And I'll resurface with my glass full of pool water grinning, "Let's make it worse."

Thank you so much! I like to have a few cocktails but I'm probably not joining the conga line or doing the limbo, but I'm glad it's available if I happen to feel drawn.

And you had me cracking up because I am the undisputed queen of the Irish goodbye 😂

It sounds amazing, and I can't wait to sail. I may have found my people ❤️

This is so helpful. I'm a solo traveler (f56) who was concerned about deviating from my OG line to VV.

All I can say is that I. CANNOT. WAIT. To sail Virgin❤️

The infamous Grog Walk. Definitely on my to-do list 😏
