Virgin Voyages Welcomes Its Two-Millionth Sailor with a Surprise Trip to London
Cruise line Virgin Voyages has celebrated a milestone in its history, marking the two-millionth time a passenger has chosen to sail with the company.
Arriving at Terminal V on Thursday, September 24, to cruise on the Resilient Lady, Sailor Jason, a seven-time Sailor from Leland, NC, and his wife Patricia were presented with a true surprise by Virgin.
The company shared that Virgin's Happenings Cast ambushed the couple right at the check-in counter. Amidst music, cheers, and confetti, a surprised Jason was handed an oversized red envelope reading: «One in Two Million. A Celebration for You».
Generous Gifts for the Couple
The gifts received by the couple are remarkably generous and fully embody the brand's style:
• A suite upgrade with exquisite design.
• An exclusive «Shore Thing» excursion of their choice.
• A private beach cabana at the company's private destination in Bimini (Beach Club at Bimini).
• A choice between a relaxing treatment at the Redemption Spa or a tattoo at the onboard Squid Ink parlor.
• A personal welcome letter from company founder Richard Branson and an exclusive invitation to the Sisters at Sea event.
• A luxurious trip to London featuring premium round-trip flights to London Heathrow courtesy of Virgin Atlantic, alongside a three-night stay at the five-star boutique hotel Virgin Hotels London Shoreditch.
In addition, the company also recognized those who help travelers discover new horizons. First Mate travel advisor Nereida from Florida received a special surprise and a token of appreciation for helping organize numerous journeys for cruise line guests.
The company emphasizes that reaching the two-millionth milestone is, above all, a heartfelt thank-you to all the Sailors who continue to choose Virgin Voyages for their vacations at sea.
