Virgin Voyages has confirmed that its first cruise ship, Scarlet Lady, will feature Cuba as one of her voyage destinations during her inaugural season in 2020.
It said the decision was influenced by customer and travel partner research it conducted in North America and the UK.
"Virgin Atlantic has been visiting Cuba for 13 years, and I cannot wait to see our iconic Scarlet Lady gleaming in the Havana Harbor," said Virgin Group founder Sir Richard Branson.
"Havana is the perfect place for our sailors to go and experience a city that exudes an irresistible energy and passion."
The brand, which describes itself as ‘Adult By Design (18+)’ will sail from Miami to Cuba for an overnight stay so passengers can sample Havana’s vibrant nightlife and cultural heritage.
Specific sailing dates relating to Virgin Voyages’ visits to Cuba will be released when the company opens up bookings for sale next year.
