The newest cruise line to join the club, Virgin Voyages promises a journey unlike any other. Combining upscale glamor with a cheeky attitude and a laid-back atmosphere isn’t easy but if anyone can do it, Sir Richard Branson can.

Virgin ditches many of the cruise ship traditions– there’s no main dining room, no theatre-style musicals, no “cruise director,” no PA announcements, no belly flop contests at the pool, and no kids– Virgin is an 18-and-over cruise line.

But rather than talk about what Virgin doesn’t have– let’s focus on what it does include: All tips, wireless internet, sodas, specialty dining, and group fitness classes are all included in your cruise fare. The result is a premium cruise experience without the stuffy vibe often found on other high-end cruise lines.
