I am not sure. I sail a lot and it's always consistently been 7 days. Not saying it didn't happen since it's Virgin and anything can happen lol

wsataday

Try to get off as early as you can since this is international flight

wsataday

If you can't print it, then it's okay. I have never printed mine and have never had an issue/result in significant delay. Just make sure the port person writes the cabin number legibly.

wsataday

Virgin always send it out only a week out. No way to access it from anywhere else either.

wsataday

Yup .. quite the cut but better than nothing I guess

wsataday

Sounds like a closed-loop Miami sailing. If the app doesn't work, they can check you in at the physical check-in. Bring the birth certificate as well

wsataday

Looks like a glitch .. never seen that before myself though. Also, be careful that post-voyage MNVV is not the same as onboard MNVV since you only get the loot and not the discount.

wsataday

Probably can try to tell them your issues and get it escalated to see if they snap remove the first mate. They just change their policies so not sure now

wsataday

They just change it so that they will refer you to the first mates for any changes to be made on the bookings now.

wsataday

You can stack mnvv with solo supplement discount. You need to call or get first mate to do it for you though since you can't do that via website yourself.

When they cancel your MNVV, you would have received the $150 in your account as FVC that you can apply to your new booking

Tbh, self servicing MNVV is not easy and it's one of the things that's way easier with a first mate and doesn't help when you get untrained agent on the phone to help either.

wsataday

Same ol

wsataday

That's surprising because they normally have the ADA ramp. Maybe it's too steep or maybe the ADA ramp is only on certain deck, I can't recall how it is here

wsataday

Depending how long you are there, I think many people do an island hopping tour at Tortola. Bimini is a good port to snorkel with sharks

wsataday

Congrats! Depending on how much you want to do, you can do a lot just in Tiano Bay port for Puerto Plata itself if you just want to chill and relax (that's assuming not many ships are docked there that day), it's like another Bimini Beach club but bigger. San Juan you can self explore or get a tour to explore the old town. Bimini for first timers, I recommend to just go and spend time at the Beach Club and ignore all the gold cart people.

wsataday

Yeah that's super surprising

wsataday

It will come .. usually almost a week out

wsataday

At the reservation desk? Or you guys tried to walk in?

wsataday

The internal system, website, app, onboard don't really talk to each other nicely so it depends where they are looking at and even if it's good on their side, it might not show up properly on the app preboarding.

It's not the end of the world. On embarkation, go to the restaurant reservation desk (with human) at the terminal or onboard (not walk-in) to fix all your reservations.

wsataday

It's not tapioca, that's why. More like jelly.

wsataday

Would love to help and give my insight. I live on the ship and go to all the solo events and usually help run the solo Whatsapp group for VV sailings.

wsataday

They usually provides discount on embarkation day. Spa will sometimes have 30% discount randomly throughout if they are not selling well or during port days. Otherwise, nothing much other than booking with sailor loot

wsataday

Imo medium vibe with good food does fit Virgin for the long voyage like the panama.

16 nights from MIA to LAX and 17 for LAX to MIA. The crossing back is on the later side in 2027 (Nov)

wsataday

For me Pink Agave out of that list.. assuming you are doing Resilient

wsataday

From most casino people I talked to, apparently, Virgin machines have a comparatively lower payout but a higher reward ratio than other places. So you have a higher chance of losing,, but if you win, the payout can be higher.

At the end of the day, it's all about how lucky you are.

wsataday

Yup super annoying. And pretty useless. I don't even think it ever notified me when it's my turn
