Virgin Voyages is a Plantation, Florida based cruise line and a joint venture between the Virgin Group and Bain Capital. As of January 2019, Virgin Voyages has ordered three mid-sized cruise ships, with an expected capacity of approximately 2.700 passengers each.
Before Virgin Voyages' hotly anticipated first sailing kicks off next April, the cruise line has even more news: its second ship, the Valiant Lady, will hit the seas in May 2021. While its first ship, Scarlet Lady, will cover the Caribbean and Mexico, this new ship will travel through the Mediterranean, with all three of Valiant Lady's seven-day itineraries beginning in the port of Barcelona and making an overnight pitstop in Ibiza.
As for the ship itself, the cruise line has once again worked with designers Tom Dixon and Roman & Williams to ensure the boat looks as good as the islands each Mediterranean cruise is sailing through, but details are still scarce. All we can hope is that the Valiant Lady's amenities are in-line with those offered on the Scarlet Lady, which has more than 20 restaurants (including a Korean BBQ joint and the Test Kitchen, where cruisers are taught how to cook what they're about to eat) and the world's first tattoo parlor at sea.
Don't expect this to be the final route announcement from Virgin Voyages: The brand currently has four more ships on order that it'll roll out in the coming years.
