If you’re planning a Virgin Voyages cruise in 2026 (or booking now for a future sailing), this video is all about getting really clear on what’s included in your fare—and what you’ll still pay extra for. I walk through the big “Virgin is different” items that many cruisers love, like included dining at the restaurants (instead of a traditional main dining room), tips/gratuities being built in, and the overall value you can get when you understand how their pricing works. I also share what’s changed for 2026 and why it matters when you’re comparing fares or deciding when to book. I break it down in practical terms: what’s included for food, what drinks are included (and what isn’t), what cabin perks you can expect, and the common add-ons that can surprise first-timers—like certain beverages, shore excursions, and other onboard purchases. My goal is to help you budget properly and avoid that “I thought it was included” feeling once you’re onboard. If you’re a first-time Virgin sailor or you’ve sailed before and want the latest updates, this is the kind of overview that helps you cruise with confidence.
