- What Do You Need to Bring?
- Bring a Friend for $399!
Registration with Virgin Voyages is now open. Getting ready to sail takes only a few minutes and opens a world of possibilities for customizing your vacation. See below for some of the exciting options.
Finally, thank you for being patient as we put together an exciting program — it’s going to be a sensational experience for all!
Register Now with Virgin Voyages
You should now register with Virgin Voyages directly in the Virgin Voyages App (available for free download in the Apple or Android app store). Registration only takes a minute and will be open until 9 am on October 15.
Your booking number with Virgin Voyages is as follows:
Please note that the Virgin Booking ID differs from your Drag Stars confirmation number. Each room only has one Virgin ID. If “N/A” appears above, it means that Virgin is still adding you to the manifest, and we will send you an update in the next few days.
From there, you only need to set up your account on the Virgin Voyages App. Instructions are in the app. You cannot register on a laptop via the web, as it takes place in the App.
Please note that there are six steps in the registration process, but each only takes a minute.
Customize Your Vacation Experience
The absolute best way to experience these destinations is through an organized tour. You’ll make the most of your holiday by having something planned, even if it’s just an introduction to these exciting places.
There are four things you can do today:
- Book Shore Things to explore our amazing ports. Virgin has created some of the most engaging, energizing, and fun shore experiences in the world that are perfect for Drag Stars guests. They are refreshingly different from other cruise ships’ offerings and exciting!
- Purchase a Bar Tab for a discount! This allows you to buy credit for onboard purchases and get some extra dollars to spend on drinks for you or your friends. It’s a sensational deal and only available before we set sail.
- Book Spa Appointments in advance. Virgin has the most gorgeous full-service spa on the high seas, with unique treatments that we know you’ll love. With limited sea days, we strongly recommend booking soon.
- Indulge in the optional “Touch of Romance” package, adding a sweet collection of sensational services for one low price. This limited new package offers each couple priority boarding, daily juice specials, a 3-hour Thermal Spa pass, one “shake for Champagne”, daily delicious bites, a special Sailaway event, and more! All for $250 per room but limited to 90 rooms!
Dining and Show Bookings
We have found that keeping most of the tables open for walk-ins allows you maximum flexibility. However, we will accept reservations in all restaurants for seatings from 6 pm to 7 pm. This flexible system has worked fantastically well for our guests on all Virgin ships and provides you with plenty of options every night.
Shows can only be booked once onboard through the local network, but again, reservations will be easy, as we’ve added extra performances to ensure you can see everything you desire.
If you have any questions or issues with accessing your booking, please call Virgin directly on +1 954 488 2955. However, if their call center refuses to assist you because “This is a charter sailing” or similar statement, please call our team on 323-673-5700 and we will do our best to assist.
What to Pack
We’re spicing things up a bit with special parties on the pool deck hosted by House of Avalon and our own talent. While not required, here are a few theme ideas to think about.
| Welcome Wig Party |
Channel the zany vibrant energy of Wigstock – the original drag festival for our first night together. Join our queens on the top decks and don your favorite wig – or not – and for a few hours of musical madness. |
| Halloween Preview |
It’s a bit early for Halloween, but a good outfit should never go unseen. Our queens showcase the latest in ghoulish fashion and dazzling holiday looks. Bring your outfit for a trial run or let our queens inspire you! |
| Scarlet Night |
Scarlet – the color of danger, love, mischief, and just plain fun. Pull out your brightest red outfit in any style you want and dive into the craziness with our queens and a few special guests. |
Bring a Friend for $399
We’d like to extend a very special offer to all Drag Stars guests booked as of September 29: Bring up to two friends for $399 per person (plus taxes and port fees). Share the savings or gift it—either way, it’s our way of saying thanks for being a part of our very first experience!
Bookings for this special offer are not available online. Please have your friend call one of our friendly agents at 323-673-5700 and reference your booking number or full name. We’ll take care of the rest.
So, call a friend today and let them join in the fun!
This special offer is only available to guests who were booked and fully paid as of September 29 and is limited to two friends per booked stateroom. No room choices are allowed and rooms will be assigned by our office team. May not be combined with any other special offer or discount.
