Passengers aged 18 to 26 can cruise for FREE this summer with Virgin Voyages (but there’s a catch…)

If you are lucky enough to be over 18 and under 26, you can sail for free with Virgin Voyages.

But there is a catch. You will probably be traveling with your parents.

Young adults can vacation for free with the cruise line as long as they are accompanied by their parents, guardians or caregivers.

Virgin Voyages is promoting the campaign under the title ‘kids fly free’.

While the cruise line strictly targets adults only, it is changing the definition of “children” to include young adults aged 18 to 26.

Virgin Journeys said in a statement: “If you’re old enough to vote, you’re old enough to sail” was the thinking that inspired Virgin Voyages’ (cheeky) definition of “children.”

‘As a brand known for its adults-only atmosphere, the company is changing course and answering the call of its sailors to bring their (adult) children on board.

‘Whether your (not so) little ones are about to graduate from college, head off to college or have canceled their current health insurance, there’s truly no better way for parents to celebrate with their adult children than onboard Virgin Voyages’ award-winning fleet.’

Virgin Voyages offers onboard activities that are “designed for kids of all ages” and are “anything but your average kids’ club on holiday.”

Virgin Voyages is marketing the promotion as “kids go free.” While the cruise line is strictly adults-only, it is changing the definition of “kids” to include young adults ages 18 to 26.

Guests can make beaded bracelets, play dodgeball or dance in the pool during the famous ‘Scarlet Night’ – a ship-wide party where guests are encouraged to dress in red.

There are also ‘family-friendly’ activities on the coast, such as wine tasting in Italy, cooking in the Mediterranean or swimming with sharks in Bimini.

Virgin Voyages website adds: ‘[The promotion is] Only applicable with a second sailor in the cabin.

‘If a third and fourth sailor are added to the cabin, they will pay the full applicable cabin rate.’

And it only applies to the following cabin types: Central Sea Terrace, Sea Terrace, Limited View Sea Terrace, Sea View and Insider.

This offer is available for a limited time only and must be booked before August 23rd.
