Virgin Voyages

Virgin Voyages’ launch been the most awaited amongst cruising vegans, for the promised plantbased options onboard. On August 6th Scarlet Lady had her first paid customers onboard from Portsmouth, UK for a short staycation sailing. Social media shares from the ship, the cabins, her venues and entertainment have been super exciting to see but what about the promised vegan options? I wasn’t able to get onboard this August due to work commitments, but my blogging friends from Wansbrough’s Cruise Blog did! They kindly agreed to review Nicole’s options from their cruise. Enjoy this Virgin Voyages vegan food review and see MrW & Nicole’s own blog for ship photos from this cruise. The link is in the guest post, enjoy!

Earlier in 2020 Virgin Voyages released some menu teasers from their first ship, the Scarlet Lady (see my last post). That made vegan cruisers wonder about actual meal provision onboard. But worry not, Jenni from CruiseMummy blog has kindly reviewed Scarlet Lady’s vegan offering during a ship visit day. See how Jenni got on in this kind guest post of hers. The menus are all very quirky and different. See for yourself if Virgin Voyages and their sister ships Valiant and Scarlet Lady are for you. Vegan options they do provide, but what do you think of the options available?

I have already featured Virgin Voyages on my blog for their wonderful sustainability measures, but they do deserve another post. To coincide with their UK ship preview of Scarlet Lady, Virgin Voyages released some teaser menus with vegan options clearly labelled. These teaser menus will give some indication on how Virgin Voyages will cater for those looking for plantbased meals. Quite exciting, I think.
