    Great video. Very informative. I've sailed them twice now and agree with everything. I often go solo as well. Thanks again. ❤️

    Very nice video and good tips! That really is a small solo cabin! Not used to having to book entertainment in advance. Glad to hear there are some chill areas, but looking at that pool party, not sure Virgin is for me-think I’d feel old!🤣

      Yeah, it’s a funny one - deff very different to the other lines! Thanks for watching - I’m glad you enjoyed, Cheri! For sure, there are parties, but also plenty chill time too!

    Dear Fraser, thank you so much for this video, as well as for all of your videos. Until your video and your very sanguine comments, we had rather had the impression that the Virgin Ships were rather like a 1960's hippies commune group festival, very Mid-America, at sea, imagine a Virgin version of the 1960's musical "Aquarius". We generally tend to Cunard, Holland America and Fred Olsten and the P&O old foggies ships, think Town and Country at sea. After your video, we are really considering it. Kind regards, Lulú and Family

      Hey, thanks for watching! I haven’t, but have heard mixed reviews. Some love it, others I’ve heard not massively rate it.
      I haven’t tried it, so can’t really advise on that one - so sorry!

      Hey Tammy, you’re right - it’s a little hidden! I just searched ‘Virgin Voyages Status Match’ on google and it all came up - always worth checking!

    @mikeysteam 29 дней назад +1

    Great informative video!. Still think VC are offering a confused experience, which appears to be an odd mix of refinement blurred with innuendos of a particular nature at every possible opportunity? Is this fair to say? Not actually been onboard.

    • @FraserAtSea
      @FraserAtSea  28 дней назад +1

      This is a really polite way of putting it. I think it is somewhat mixed, but that’s not a criticism from my view, as they’re still such a new cruise line and trying to find their feet. Will be interested to see how they evolve over the next few years, but I’ll 100% support them!
