Virgin Voyages Introduces 2026 Eclipse-Themed Sailings

Virgin Voyages has introduced its first-ever "Eclipse Voyages" as part of its newest series, "Marvelous Voyages." The line’s collection of Eclipse Voyages set for August 2026 will give guests the opportunity to cruise towards the path of totality. These 12- and 15-night itineraries include stops at Dublin, Glasgow and Reykjavik aboard Valiant Lady and the Amalfi Coast, Mallorca and Cannes on Scarlet Lady. Guests can also enjoy special onboard events and appearances.

The voyages will play host to space explorers and scientists. "Galactic" grandstands outfitted with telescopes and binoculars will transform the ship’s upper decks into observation viewing spaces with astronomers on standby. New moon ceremonies, starry symphonies and cosmic culinary creations such as Milky Way milkshakes will round out the special programming. Guests will also snag a pair of solar eclipse shades and a commemorative guide as a fun takeaway.

Besides the Eclipse Voyages, the new collection of "Marvelous Voyages" include six other sailings between March and August 2026, ranging from eight to 16 nights. Spanning Iceland to Istanbul, the British Isles to the Baltics, the "Marvelous Voyages" will call at 12 new ports, including Salerno, Edinburgh, Stockholm, Hamburg, Oslo, Tangier and Greenland.

“Loyalty Sailors” will have first dibs on these off-the-beaten-path adventures, with inventory opening August 14-21 depending on loyalty status. General bookings will be open between August 21 and September 18, 2024.
