Are drinks included on cruises?
Whether drinks are included on a cruise depends on the cruise line and package. Many all-inclusive cruises include soft drinks, water, and basic hot beverages, while alcoholic drinks may require a premium drinks package. Cruise lines like our friends Virgin Voyages include essential drinks like sodas and specialty coffees, while others offer unlimited beverage packages for an additional fee. Always check what’s included in your cruise holiday deal before booking.
Do I need to tip on a cruise?
Most cruise lines add gratuities or service charges automatically to your bill. However, tipping on cruises can vary depending on the cruise line. For example, Virgin Voyages cruises are tip-free, with gratuities already included in the price. For others, tipping may still be expected for cabin stewards, dining staff, and spa services.
How long should a cruise be for?
The ideal cruise length depends on your travel goals. Mini cruises (2–5 days) are great for first-timers, while 7-night cruises are the most popular and offer a balance of relaxation and exploration. For more in-depth travel, 10- to 14-night cruises or world cruise segments allow you to see multiple destinations in comfort. Consider a Caribbean cruise, Mediterranean voyage, or Transatlantic sailing based on your travel style and time.
Where can I get a Virgin Voyages cruise from?
Ahoy sailor! You can board a Virgin Voyages cruise from several major ports including Miami (USA), Barcelona (Spain), and Athens (Greece). These departure ports serve itineraries across the Caribbean, Mediterranean, and Transatlantic routes. Virgin Voyages also occasionally departs from Portsmouth (UK) for special seasonal sailings. Check the latest Virgin Voyages itineraries for updated port options.
Can I cruise from the UK?
Don’t feel like flying? Want to avoid the hustle and bustle of the airport? We’ve got you covered with plenty of departures from ports in the UK, and you’ll still have the world at your fingertips. Sail around Europe for a taster (perfect for those who are new to cruising), or take the scenic route over the ocean as far as the Caribbean for cruise holidays that start as soon as you’re onboard.
