With a brand-new restaurant, redesigned venues, and unexpected changes from Scarlet Lady, Valiant and Resilient, this cruise could be Virgin’s boldest move yet… or a misstep.

Join us as we experience a jaw-dropping sail away past the Manhattan skyline and Statue of Liberty, explore every new space on Brilliant Lady, and put the cruise food, entertainment, cabins, and nightlife to the test.

Is Virgin Voyages still the ultimate adults-only cruise experience, or has something changed?
