If you book your cruise at the last minute or forget to book dinner in advance, you should know that 30% of dinner reservations are held till after boarding....so in the same way you can book shows or fitness classes as soon as you can log on to VV wifi, you can book dinner and brunch. In addition, you can go to Razzle Dazzle after boarding where they will help you with dinner reservations. You DO NOT have to go standby if you somehow miss the 45 day spot. Only the fitness classes have a "no show" fee if you fail to show up or cancel at least 24 hours in advance. DO check your account. I got a message about being a "no show" for a class that I had attended. Turns out it was an app problem that day.
I love that the portion sizes are small. Since all of the food is included, it gives you the opportunity to experience more food ! And yes, book with JC! He got us an amazing deal with sailor loot and a bar tab. See what he can do for your sailing :)
Hi! Thanks for the tips! Just booked last week our very first cruise ever! We will be sailing out of San Juan at the end of January for the southeastern carribean Valiant Lady cruise!!+ So excited!
Thank you for watching! secret menu: razzle dazzle. "not known to many" is test kitchen has more than 1 menu on long sailings, and a pretty cool vegetarian menu
I love your videos! Since you have sailed VV so much I would like your opinion on handicapped accessibility to things. Do you feel it would be easy to navigate with a scooter. I like watching content creators, but there are a few who take into account those who have disabilities and they don’t show those types of access. Keep up the great work like I said, love your videos.
I have many friends that solely create content around accessible travel - it's important to find people who create exactly what you're looking for! To answer your question - Virgin Voyages and all cruises are easy to navigate via scooter. Jodie recently rocked hiking around Cambodia (she's an above the knee amputee).

just booked on Scarlet for September with my parents in a Terrace and myself and a friend in insider. This info was fantastic! I am a cruise consultant and this will be my 13th cruise. Cant wait!
Great tips, I went on Resilient Lady in December 2023, 6 nights and found that wasn’t long enough to truly experience what was on offer. Im booked 11 nights in March 2024 and looking forward to a more relaxed cruise now i understand how everything works Brunch is a must at the Wake or Razzle Dazzle although Razzle Dazzle has reduced the secret menu. My tip slow down when onboard and take time to explore each deck you might find things that you never knew about above all have fun and an open mind. No kids allowed 😂
My husband and I have never been on a cruise and he has some vacation time next week and I thought about booking a cruise next week leaving on Feb 21st... Do you think we should just go for it or will lots of reservations be already taken as far as dinner and shows at this point?
Thank you for this daaaarrrrling!! I'm going on my first VV cruise on 11-5, Scarlet Lady here I come!! I'm so excited 😊 🛳🏝✈️👙🥂🍾 I'm assuming you have to book with JC to get sailor loot?? Either way, I can't wait!! I'm going to binge watch your VV videos 😊
I just found you and sadly booked online with zero bucks - it's my 55th Arriving Alive cruise-- going on Aug 2nd on the Dominican Daze cruise! Also if it's a 5 night - what night would be scarlet night?
Ooh, they're allowing passengers to book shows and stuff in the terminal again?! I remember that used to be a thing, but then for awhile you couldn't book til you got on the ship.
Sorry to say, if you are not a RS, you cannot go into RRT. Even if you are with someone with a black band. The crew will ask you to leave. If this was a thing, then it wouldn't be exclusive nor a perk for those paying thousands more for this uncrowded area.
I am so distracted by these acronyms I didn't catch the actual message here, but thanks for being helpful, I think!! Reminds me of when I used to be in corporate world with my ball and chain and cubicle walls.
True, but that's OK. We were not impressed with Richard's Rooftop. It was VERY windy. We spent most of our time at the Perch and I will try the Dock House next time.

This is by far the best & most fun, informative video regarding the reality of a Virgin Voyage! Thank you Christine. You rock!
awwww thank you! and ahoy from valiant!!!

This info was fantastic! I am a cruise consultant and this will be my 13th cruise. Cant wait!

Awesome videos love your content I contacted Jason after seeing your videos. I am already booked but Jason and his team are great.
YESSSS!!!!!!!
My husband and I have never been on a cruise and he has some vacation time next week and I thought about booking a cruise next week leaving on Feb 21st... Do you think we should just go for it or will lots of
reservations be already taken as far as dinner and shows at this point?
no way! just do it! (i'm late on answering this). i learned i was sailing 2 weeks before I went and it was fab!
So... would they frown upon you filling a camel pak with flutes of free bubbles opening night
HAHAHAHHA! i just LOL'd.
Made it to one of the secret gatherings it was a about 10 or 12 of us talking to the characters and having champagne
that's great! we just did another secret show 2 nights ago on scarlet night for valiant lady. they're so fun!
No more secret menu at razzle dazzle.
maybe!
RD menu has changed. There is a separate menu for brunch and dinner....
I love your channel and I’m so glad I found you! I’m thinking of booking a cruise and I have been checking out all the different choices!
i looove to hear this!!
Thank you for this daaaarrrrling!! I'm going on my first VV cruise on 11-5, Scarlet Lady here I come!! I'm so excited 😊 🛳🏝✈️👙🥂🍾 I'm assuming you have to book with JC to get sailor loot?? Either way, I can't wait!! I'm going to binge watch your VV videos 😊
ohhhh i love to hear this! i hope your sailing was amazing!
Hello
Thanks for the great Information. Your the best. How do I contact Jay
glad it was helpful! it's all in the description of this video!
I just found you and sadly booked online with zero bucks - it's my 55th Arriving Alive cruise-- going on Aug 2nd on the Dominican Daze cruise! Also if it's a 5 night - what night would be scarlet night?
I meant sailor loop
it's different on EVERY sailing! for dominican daze.. it's generally in the middle of the week. for key west... it's second night.
ah i'm sad to hear this! i was on dominican daze with over $1k last time!!
So helpful! I’m excited for my cruise!
YESSS! i love to hear this!
Thanks for the tips I sure will be using a lot of them. 🎉❤
You are so welcome!🙌🏽
Love you and your videos so much so glad I found you today!❤
oh heyyyyy!
so at each port can you bring 2 more bottles of wine on board
i wish! that'd be rad! only when you board.
I imagine they do not allow drones on the boat. Is that the case?
correct!! unless you’re on the security list!
10:07 Is that a... glass smoking device
LOL i had to watch it twice to figure out what it was. its a rocks glass and a wine glass placed too close together 😂😂😂
Awesome job Christine
thanks dude!
No problem
Hi, What is the very earliest they let people on?
It depends on your sailing but generally around 12:45-1 with rockstars (and mega rockstars) going first! I hope that helps!!
awesome video christine :) thanks for sharing :)
yesss! thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!
Where are you JC 👀??
👀 hes in the atlanta area 👀
Great video

Ido social media and they let me in no problem lol

@@heyneikaget it girrrrl
@@zork999love the days beds at the dock! definitely snag one of those at sunset.
Is sailor loot the same as the bar tab?
No. Bar is just for drinks, SL is for everything, excursions, ship shopping, upsell food, and also works for drinks.
How do you earn it
@@carlashelton2780 You get it as part of a promotion when you purchase your cruise and from working with a TA who often has $50 to $100 to kick to you.
@@carlashelton2780 Sailor Loot is sometimes a promo or you can get it though your travel advisor.
sailor loot can be used toward a bar tab, but not vice versa.
I know it's hard to believe but I don't have a cell phone, could I use my Kindle Fire tablet instead to connect to the app?
WHOOOOA! does someone know the answer to this? 👀
Thanks for the tips! How do I contact JC the travel agent?
His contact info is in the description! I just booked another trip him bookwithcl.com/
How do I contact JC for purchasing open bar packages
It's not an open bar package. It's usually a $300 Bar Tab. Some of us advisors also get extra Sailor Loot for clients.
link is in the description! and what she said below! 🤘🏽
💯
Wow thanks a lot @ChristinaLozada
Wasn’t expected this video is so informative
You are brilliant
