Join us for a first-time presentation by Virgin Voyages. This is Richard Branson’s Cruise Line that was scheduled to launch in the Spring of 2020. Due to COVID, this did not happen. We are hoping some time here in 2021 the Scarlet Lady will start her voyages in the Caribbean. In the meantime, Richard has built two more new ships: the Valiant Lady, which will homeport in Barcelona, and Resilient Lady, which will sail exclusively in the Greek Isles. These ships are unique and do not follow the mainstream feel in any way. It should be an interesting presentation.
Looking forward to more travel in 2021. The Caribbean and Mexico are already open at the all-inclusive resorts. Lots of folks are getting out this spring to the beaches.
