He and Virgin Voyages President and CEO Tom McAlpin announced that the line is now taking bookings for their first ship, the Scarlet Lady.

The inaugural season kicks off from April 21, 2020 through to October 21.

โ€œIโ€™ve dreamed of starting my own cruise line since I was in my 20โ€™s, and now the launch is finally getting close,โ€ said Richard Branson, Founder ofย Virginย Voyages. โ€œWe have taken the time to think about every detail and craft an experience that brings theย Virginย brand to life and disrupts the travel industry.โ€

Virginย Voyages will offer a cheeky and cheerful approach to service, as well as an inclusive approach to sea travel that removes pesky add-ons. Its Sailors will enjoy free food at the 20+ eateries onboard, free group fitness classes, no gratuities or service charges, free Wifi and free basic beverages like soda, teas, and drip coffee, as well as still and sparkling water.

โ€œAtย Virginย Voyages we are going beyond just great design, to defy and redefine luxury to be rebellious luxe,โ€ said Tom McAlpin, President and CEO ofย Virginย Voyages.

โ€œThis new luxury is about knowing you are taken care of, that youโ€™re never being nickel and dimed, and what you want, even some of the things you didnโ€™t know you wanted, are already taken care of for you.โ€

In conjunction with opening bookings for sale,ย Virginย Voyages revealed that all voyages will feature The Beach Club at Bimini, aย Virginย Voyages experience in Bimini, Bahamas.

The new resort which is built in partnership with Resorts World Bimini. By day, the resort is a relaxing place where you can retox and detox with massages, yoga, meditation sessions or just lying on the beach. And by evening, the energy ramps up with pool parties.

While on ship,ย Virginย Voyages Sailors will have the opportunity to choose from aย festival-like lineup of all-new completely original Events & Gigs developed by some of the worldโ€™s most-talked about producers, directors and artistsย in the expansion of the companyโ€™s Creative Collective.ย Virginย Voyagesโ€™ entertainment Creative Collective includes Jenny Gersten, Randy Weiner, Sam Pinkleton, Ani Taj, PigPen Theatre Co, The 7 Fingers, Roslyn Hart and Alfredo Guenzani and the Spark Cooperative.
