Virgin Red is giving away 100 Virgin Voyages cruises.

Winners can choose from any of the Caribbean or Mediterranean sailings from now until the end of the year. You get a Sea Terrace Cabin for up to two guests, with double or twin rooms available. Flights and transfers, and other on-board purchases, are not included although the cruise is full board.

You need to be 18+ to win as the cruises are adults only.

To enter, you simply need to complete this quick questionnaire on the Virgin Red website or in the app. There are no wrong answers – all it asks about are the features you find most attractive about Virgin Voyages. Entry closes at 11:59pm on Wednesday 14th September.

Feedback from readers who booked the exceptionally generous Virgin Points redemption deals has been very positive. You can read some of the feedback and tips in our Virgin Voyages Masterthread in the forums.

Virgin Voyages Mediterranean cruises are still available for redemption this Autumn for just 115,000 Virgin Points for seven nights.

PS. Virgin Voyages is now selling a handful of one-way repositioning cruises with its newest ship, Brilliant Lady, in early 2024. Trips include:

  • Australia to Singapore (15 nights)
  • Singapore to Dubai (14 nights)
  • Dubai to Athens (14 nights)

You can also combine all three for a six-week epic. You can see those cruises here.
