ADVERTISING FEATURE
VIRGIN VOYAGES Brilliant to do business with
We love to talk the talk about how we’re making an ‘epic sea change for all’ in the cruise industry, but walking the walk means having you, our First Mates, by our side. As we approach our inaugural season, it’s important you know how much we value you. That’s why we have improved all our offerings to be even more brilliant to do business with. After all, if you do well, we do well. We’re going to make that happen by offering compelling commission, showcasing our extraordinary experiences, assuring you that we respect your client relationships, and sharing inside intel to #RaiseYourSales. Speaking of commission, the 16% commission we pay on voyage fares is here to stay; this is no limited-time offer. It’s something you can count on, in addition to earning on everything – no portion of the base voyage fare is set aside, designated, deducted or excluded from your earnings. You’ll continue to earn 10% commission on everything sold before your client sets sail, with the exception of taxes and fees. So when you put in the work of helping your clients customise their experiences by adding extras such as onboard credit, shore excursions, hotel stays, voyage protection, spa treatments and premium Wi-Fi, you’ll be rewarded for that work. You even earn commission on selling a Bar Tab, our answer to a drinks package.
VOYAGE WELL
Front of mind for 2021 is being at the top for health and safety. Our Voyage Well plan includes ambitious goals for redefining health measures at sea, plus industry-leading partnerships and a dedication to innovate using science and technology. Whether you and your clients are on Scarlet Lady or Valiant Lady – our new ship set to debut in 2021 – we’re
still making sure what’s important is included, like dining at all 20-plus eateries, group fitness classes, unlimited Wi-Fi, basic bevvies and even tips for our crew. That means more than $600 in value, per person, is on us, so more is included for your clients with no surprise bills at the end of their voyage.
WHAT’S NEW?
To ensure your confidence and comfort in selling Virgin Voyages, we’re also launching a new learning management system, which will offer plenty of rewards for our First Mates. Whether you want access to educational opportunities, marketing materials or the chance to get aboard a 2021 sailing, you’ll have the first-hand experience you need to share Virgin Voyages with your customers. Your partnership means everything to us as we introduce
Virgin Voyages to the world. Our ambition is to always be brilliant to do business with, and we thank you for your support.

BAR TAB
Our innovative Bar Tab brings freedom and reasonable pricing back to beverage options on board. Your clients can order what they want when they want it, featuring the best prices inclusive of gratuity. And, when a Bar Tab is purchased before the ship sails, you’ll earn commission on it. Learn all about Bar Tab and more with our new learning system. First Mates who complete a level by January 31, 2021, will rank among the First Waves, an exclusive group eligible for extra surprises and future offers, including an invitation to join us on a hosted voyage on Scarlet Lady or Valiant Lady during our inaugural year.
