Virgin Voyages is making it easier to spend a month at sea next summer by bringing back its seasonal pass.
The company will offer 24 to 40-night passes across its fleet for summer 2025, according to Virgin. The passes start at $14,999 for two travelers.
The option is an extension of the seasonal pass the cruise line offered this past summer, which was valid for a month-long journey on the Scarlet Lady ship in the Mediterranean Sea.
“Swap that zoom gloom for seaside views from your room. Whether you joined us this year or were just daydreaming about it — you can now reserve your spot to call one of our lady ships home (and work!) for a full month next summer,” Virgin Voyages wrote in a post about the pass. “With the fastest at-sea internet on the high seas in the biz, it’ll be a breeze hopping on your morning video meeting as you feel, well, the literal ocean breeze.”
Pass holders will receive a Central Sea Terrace stateroom with a private balcony, a premium Wi-Fi connection, included laundry service, two specialty coffees per cabin per day to fuel up, and early access to shore bookings and dining reservations. Pass holders will also have access to a dedicated pre-voyage and onboard support service and be greeted on board with welcome bubbles.
Next summer’s pass will be valid to use on the Scarlet Lady in Europe, on the Valiant Lady in the Caribbean, and on the Resilient Lady in the Mediterranean.
To sign up, travelers can fill out a form online and select their preferred sail dates and ship.
The new pass option comes as Virgin launches its first-ever credit card for travelers from the United States. The new card will allow travelers to earn 3x points across Sir Richard Branson’s travel brands, including the adults-only cruise line Virgin Voyages.
