Virgin Voyages is set to bring back its popular month-long cruise pass for Summer 2025, offering travelers the opportunity to spend up to 40 nights at sea across the company's fleet. Starting at $14,999 for two people, the pass allows passengers to enjoy a long-haul vacation with premium perks, including access to a Central Sea Terrace stateroom, Wi-Fi, laundry services, and early shore excursion and dining reservations.
This pass, which builds upon the success of the seasonal offering launched in 2023, enables guests to embark on unforgettable journeys on one of Virgin’s three vessels: the Scarlet Lady in Europe, the Valiant Lady in the Caribbean and the Resilient Lady in the Mediterranean. Each ship offers unique itineraries designed to provide a relaxing, yet adventurous, experience at sea.
“Swap that zoom gloom for seaside views from your room. Whether you joined us this year or were just daydreaming about it—you can now reserve your spot to call one of our lady ships home (and work!) for a full month next summer,” Virgin Voyages wrote in a post. “With the fastest at-sea internet on the high seas in the biz, it’ll be a breeze hopping on your morning video meeting as you feel, well, the literal ocean breeze.”
Passholders will be treated to a Central Sea Terrace stateroom, which includes a private balcony and a premium Wi-Fi connection. Additional perks include complimentary laundry services, two specialty coffees per cabin per day, and early access to shore excursions and dining reservations. The service also features pre-sailing and onboard access to a Dedicated Sailor Services Support team, ensuring guests are welcomed from the moment they step on board.
According to Travel + Leisure, the adults-only cruise line has also just launched its first credit card for U.S. travelers, offering 3x the loyalty points across Sir Richard Branson's travel brands. This includes earning points for trips on Virgin Voyages, allowing passengers to accrue travel rewards as they enjoy their month-long escape to any of these idyllic destinations.
If you’re interested in sailing with Virgin next summer for anywhere from 24 to 40 nights, you should act quickly, as there are a very limited number of passes available. For more information, you can visit Virgin Voyages' official website, and fill out an online form to choose their preferred ship and sailing dates.
