Virgin Voyages Releases Its First Caribbean Destination
Caribbean News Caribbean Travel & Tourism
Highly anticipated cruise line, Virgin Voyages, by Sir. Richard Branson, will make Havana, Cuba its first port of call. The cruise line will launch in 2020 and will depart from Port Miami with its first ship, The Scarlet Lady.
"We're giving sailors the opportunity to discover one of the world's most desired destinations, Virgin Voyages style," the company said. Select itineraries on Virgin Voyages in 2020 will include both daytime calls and overnight stays in Havana Harbor, the company said.
Virgin Voyages, which will be an exclusively adults- only cruise line (or as Virgin calls it "adult by design,") is looking to disrupt the Caribbean cruise industry with provocative design, unorthodox amenities like on-ship tattoo parlors and what seems to be a clear focus on millennial travelers (although not exclusively).
Virgin has an initial launch planned of three cruise ships, spearheaded by the aforementioned Scarlet Lady. The company has already launched sales for its first itineraries.
