We are booked B2B, 14 days, out of Athens September 2023. We are new to Virgin and are doing a trial 5 night Caribbean next month to get a feel for how things work onboard. I researched other cruise lines with similar itinerary extensively. Virgin itinerary topped them all and it’s perfect for island hopping. One difference with Virgin is they have longer stays on the islands and an overnight in Mykonos.

Shep_Proudfoot….I found a nice b2b out of Athens next September.

Thanks for the reply. This short Caribbean cruise is a food test for part of a bigger trip I am taking next year….a 14-day back to back out of Athens. I feel very hopeful it will work out after reading your comments.

Thanks for your replies!

Taking my first Virgin cruise in November….excited! Just curious how flexible the restaurants are about leaving butter/sauces off food or making an alteration in meals at the restaurants. It’s an impossible situation on other cruise lines as they usually end up serving tasteless chicken or salmon with plain rice and a dry veggie every night. I see on Virgin menus there a lot of vegetarian meals and a few vegan, but being dairy-free I don’t fit into either category as I eat and need animal protein. If any non-dairy person has any experience or advice, I’d appreciate it.
