Virgin Voyages launches onboard credit promotion
Virgin Voyages is giving away up to $400 onboard credit for bookings on its first cruise ship, Scarlet Lady, up to February 14.
Called Sailor Loot, the credit can be used to pay for onboard experiences not included in the fare.
Passengers booking an inside or sea view cabin will receive $100 credit per cabin, those booking a sea terrace will get $200, while the suites earn passengers $400 of onboard credit.
The offer, part of Virgin’s On Us+ promotion, is available for all new bookings for Scarlet Lady, which will debut next April, except Sneak-a-Peek sailings.
The offer coincides with Virgin Voyages’ second ship, Valiant Lady (above), going on sale.
It follows Virgin’s announcement yesterday that agents would receive up to 6% extra commission on Scarlet Lady bookings for the rest of December.
