THE VIRGIN VOYAGES SAILING CLUB

It’s a breeze! The more you sail the more perks you earn.

Complete one eligible voyage and you’re automatically entered into the Sailing Club. Complete two voyages and you unlock Blue Extras to enjoy on your third voyage. After four completed voyages, you’ll unlock Deep Blue Extras to enjoy on your fifth.

An eligible voyage is a full-fare sailing that hasn't used a discounted access key or other low-fare pricing methods (such as gifted cruises, comped casino cruises, or voyages bought with airline points). Reduced rate voyages and certain other booking types are not eligible to earn or receive perks. Please refer to the Terms and Conditions for information on combinability.

Sailing Club members are entitled to exclusive limited-time offers, which will be available periodically. We will communicate via email when these offers are available, with details about how to take advantage of the booking perk.

Updated: August 13, 2021

1.  DESCRIPTION:  The Sea-Blazers Program provides benefits to Sailors who purchase a voyage and embark our ships in 2021 as a way to say “thank you” for being among the first to sail with us. Exclusions apply.

2.  ELIGIBILITY: Any person sailing with us as a paying passenger (or “Sailor” in our branding voice) in calendar year 2021 will become a Sea-Blazer and qualify for Sea-Blazer benefits, subject to exclusions laid out in paragraph 3.

Categories/First Mates/Sailors Eligibility:

•  All categories of paying Sailor, to include those in Circles

• All First Mate agencies, including Tour Operators

3.  EXCLUSIONS: Sailors traveling on Friends and Family, gifted, or charter voyages, or who travel on a deeply discounted voyage fare (i.e., voyage fares under $100/day) are excluded from the Sea-Blazer program. Shipload of Love offer, and First Mates’, no-charge access keys, Casino Sailors, as well as paid upgrades of those access keys, are excluded.  Persons boarding for solely pier-side events do not qualify.

4.  OVERVIEW OF BENEFITS: 

• Bar Tab: $125 when you purchase $300, this is an “always-on” offer for Sea-Blazers.  “Always on” means this is permanent (as long as you maintain an account with Virgin Voyages). 

• $300 OFF A 2022 SAILING: A Sea-Blazer who books and sails on a voyage with us in 2021 will get $300 off their 2022 voyage fare (£200 for our UK Sea-Blazers), before any promotional discounts or future voyage credits (FVCs).

• Virgin Merchandise: Something special in each Sea-Blazer’s cabin when they sail in 2021.    

5.  BAR TAB DETAILS

5.1  Offer: These terms detail the Sea-Blazer program’s “Bar Tab” Offer.  We’re offering our Sea-Blazer-Sailors the opportunity to buy $300 Bar Tab increments, to which Virgin Voyages will then add a bonus $125 U.S. dollar credit to that Sailor’s folio.  This applies for every $300 Bar Tab increment purchased.  Bar Tabs may be purchased up to midnight EST following the day before the voyage sets sail.  $125 in Bar Tab Bonus (Sailor Loot) Sea-Blazer Bar Tab Bonus applies when the Sailor sails with us for the first time -- and it lasts as long as you keep an account with us - see section 5.4.5 below.  

5.2  Voyage Eligibility:  any paying Sailor embarking SCARLET LADY in a 2021 voyage (Sailors on charter voyages, “Friends & Family” voyages, and who travel on deeply discounted fares are not eligible). 

5.3  Combinability:  The Sea-Blazer Bar Tab is combinable with everything except other Bar Tab Bonuses--you get $125 Bar Tab Bonus no matter what, even if we are publicly running $50 or $100 Bar Tab Bonus.  The $125 bonus does not stack with other Bar Tab Bonuses.

5.4  Caveats/Exclusions to the Bar Tab offer.

5.4.1.  The Bar Tab can only be used on drink purchases (a) onboard our ships or (b) at The Beach Club at Bimini. It may not be transferred to pay for other experiences e.g. Spa or shore excursions (“Shore Things'' in our branding voice).  Any unused Bar Tab credit (both purchased and bonus) will not be refunded to the Sailor at the end of the voyage.  It may not be transferred to another user (though one may purchase bar drinks for another Sailor).  Bar Tab may be cancelled, with a refund, until 24 hours from the voyage sail date.  Should the voyage sail date change, the Bar Tab may be transferred to the new voyage. Bar Tab is likely not insurable.

5.4.2.  Travel Agents (or “First Mates” in our branding voice).  First Mates can purchase a prepaid Bar Tab for their Sailors and earn commission on the purchase amount.  First Mates do not earn commission on the bonus value we give Sailors on us.  To the extent Bar Tab is purchased, First Mate’s Commission on Bar Tab (10%) will be paid post-voyage with other pre-voyage sales commission, provided Sailor makes the voyage and does not cancel the Bar Tab before the voyage.

5.4.3.  Sailor loses the Promotional Bonus portion if their 2021 reservation is cancelled, even if later reinstated.

5.4.4.  Prepay Bar Tabs may be purchased by calling Virgin Voyages prior to sailing, or through your First Mate.

5.4.5   We track the permanence of this offer through your account with us.  If you exercise your right under a privacy law applicable to you to delete all personal information we hold on you, our ability to track the affiliation of this offer with you will go away as well.  It would only be reinstated upon satisfactory review of subsequently submitted proof this offer applied to you, that is, reinstatement is not automatic.
