We fly in same day usually. Almost always no issues. Until a couple of days ago in Miami. Standing for 15 minutes watching the last few straggling bags go round and round the carousel and not seeing mine Then checking the United app which says my bag wasnt on the plane Off to baggage office where the clerk says my bag is still sitting at home airport Its 11:30 with 2pm all aboard Mad dash to Ross downtown Ross is not designed for people in a rush. But since United is paying I didnt have to focus on price. I managed to get enough clothes to last a week. Then next door to CVS for toiletries. Made it to terminal at 1:40. There were a surprisingly large number of people still boarding.
Sheesh that was cutting it close. When I sailed Jubilee we flew in the day before on Southwest and someone in our only received one bag. Southwest was trying to tell her they would give her a $150 credit and we were like no she is getting on a ship tomorrow. Her bag was chilling in Atlanta…how we don’t know because their connection was Orlando. Happy you were able to get things situated and get to the port.
Thanks C! Love your vacation style…a really good balance of turn-up and relax, have fun with friends and loving my own company. Perfect. I like some of the differences you mentioned and pointed out between the two ships. I still haven’t convinced myself whether or not I’m into VV or not. Probably means that I still have some growing up to do. But love to see everyone else having a blast. Thanks for sharing. Stay blessed. 😊❤😊
Thanks for watching!! Yeah go where you feel comfortable spending your money. Virgin is a different approach to cruising but worth trying in my opinion. Peace and blessings!
You had a pre adventure on the way to the port and it looked like it was so munch fun. I love that you were able to get some great shots of the empty spaces!❤
Hey C. One of these days we hope to sail Virgin. Was surprised to see the games especially Cootie as no kids on the ship. Oh no you missed the pajama party but at least got some needed rest. Interesting pre bingo. 😂. That random piece looks like ice cream 🤷🏻♀️. Oh Mateo took over the show 🕺.
I'm not trying to be mean by no means.. One of the things that VV stands superior over all other cruise lines they have no buffet. You can literally "if you want" go your whole cruise and never pick up a plate

Looked like a fun embarkation day!! We want to try this cruise line some day.
Do it! It’s a good time and a different type of cruising. More yacht vibes
My second trip wi VV in Dec!! First was last year in Rock Star Suites this Dec in Mega Rockstar and I cannot wait❤❤❤❤
Swanky!! I have yet to try the suites on Virgin. Seems like quite the experience. Enjoy your cruise!

Cool! Enjoy your cruise!!

Yeah that trolley was fun to ride on the way but coming back the wait and the crowded trolley probably isn’t for everyone
Boarding this ship in 23 days!! 💃🏽🪩
She was a vibe!!! What itinerary are you doing?
@@SeeItWithC doing the Key West one. I hope they offer the happy hour DJ in Pink Agave on our sailing
This was a great, informative vlog comparing the two ships. I’m ready to get back on VV and try Valiant Lady
Thanks for watching. You should give VV another try.
Nice video. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
I think I'd get a couple BINGO games in. Looks like a cool day!
I usually say gambling isn’t worth it but for the low buy in, entertainment and the odds I found it worth it
On the Rocks is my favorite hang out on VV!
I stayed there and never made it to the club
The live band is awesome!
@@mxchic05 very good musicians
you gotta talk more about the curb app and that trolley
Sure! I’m planning to do a trip recap live on Monday August 12th. Tune in live or catch the replay.

Idk why they put that random ice cream statue there
Great recap.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Omg was that curry chicken that u had for ur embarkation meal ?
Yep!
The V Lady has a buffet?
They have food stalls called The Galley where you can either walk up to be passed items or you can be served at your seat.
The galley is not a buffet
Ok
I'm not trying to be mean by no means.. One of the things that VV stands superior over all other cruise lines they have no buffet. You can literally "if you want" go your whole cruise and never pick up a plate
How many cruises do you do per year?
It varies from year to year depending on cost and time. Looks like I will get 6 in this year.
Im in here
Thanks for tuning in!
