The March 11 sailing on Valiant does appear to be missing from the website, not sure if that's a glitch or if they just remove the sailing entirely when it's sold out?
-
I happen to like steak tartare but I can see that not being common, I have also heard it has been replaced now that this show is running on both ships. We've seen the show 3 times and the act quality varies but is generally good. The "host" act wasn't great, loved the band and dancers though!

You can use Future Voyage Credit towards excursions though, we did that with back to back in the med. Just called and listed them off and they applied to our FVC. Not sure if that was only a temporary thing or ongoing, but worth calling.

To share a bar tab you have to make sure one person is covering the bill for everyone else in the cabin. Sailor Services can adjust this on board if you had it setup differently when checking in on the app.

There are 4 small drawers and 3ish shelves in a small part of the closet that has the safe and life jackets. Then in the main hanging area of the closet there is a unit with two shelves and two baskets.

The grog walk in the past has ended at the PJ party which is nice. Great way to meet some people on the first night as well. In our experience it was 4 stops and they did little games to drive interaction.

Some of the XL balconies have an unusual shape and solid metal railings instead of glass. I've also read that some of them have chairs instead of hammocks due to the shape.

If you're getting the referral sailor loot I would bet your travel agent is doing the linking for you and maybe it's including "links of links" or something. Curious that they asked you to not delete anyone until you get your money.

Bar Tab for a couple, easy or hard to use up?
neverendingcruising replied to rcrabb1513's topic in Virgin Voyages
Admittedly mt memory is a little foggy, but I believe the free bubbly was only 30 minutes in December compared to an hour in September. Would be interested to hear data points from more recent sailings. -
Behind the Scenes - Worth $200???
neverendingcruising replied to raphael360's topic in Virgin Voyages
I heard someone talking about it and seemed like a pretty extensive tour of the ship, they mentioned bridge and engine room. Can't imagine they'd actually take you into the engine room, but I'd pay $200 to see a cruise ship engine! -
Can you avoid the porters in Miami?
neverendingcruising replied to cantgetin's topic in Virgin Voyages
We've walked on with small carry on bags and skipped the porters. Our travel companions with larger bags were told to check them. -
Correct that the prepaid bar tab is only purchasable in $300 increments. Bar tab can only be used for drinks (alcoholic or not). Loot, which is onboard credit, can be used for anything, including drinks.

I thought the curry was quite good along with the rum cake. My wife was not a fan overall of the Bimini food offerings.
-
We have done the afternoon tea and I thought the selection was pretty decent. I don't recall them being the same as the Galley for the desserts.
-
Razzle Dazzle is typically closed for dinner when in Bimini as well.
-
Do you know where that is on the website? I don't think I've seen any location operating hours?
-
Ship Eats (room service) is 24/7 except the last night of the cruise. All of the Galley locations open again at 5 except Let's Taco About It and Hot of the Press which only do breakfast and lunch and then Noodle Around opens late for an hour or two. There's also the other food options that others have mentioned.
-
I had heard that the menu is now different, not sure if that's just Scarlet or they updated it on both ships. We've seen it twice and the quality of the acts vary. I thought the host dialog was just OK but the singer and band were great!

NSA and PJ Party good or too much for night 1?
neverendingcruising replied to fndecker's topic in Virgin Voyages
The six sit down restaurants always open at 6pm for dinner. -
How early can you start to check in on the app
neverendingcruising replied to seapad's topic in Virgin Voyages
Pretty sure you can check in as soon as you pay in full. -
I don't believe they offer transfers from the port after debarking at all.

neverendingcruising replied to fndecker's topic in Virgin Voyages
Wear your PJs to NSA. Can always just fall into bed if you decide the PJ party is too much! -
Would I like Virgin Voyages?
neverendingcruising replied to Shep_Proudfoot's topic in Virgin Voyages
The Dock is also generally very chill sometimes with an acoustic duo. -
In my experience drinks are noticeably cheaper on VV than Royal even before you consider the gratuity.
