Virgin Voyages doubles First Mate loot and offers Sailors up to $550 in free drinks

Virgin Voyages has announced a new trade incentive, offering £10 per booking on select European sailings.

From now through to May 28, First Mates (agents) will earn £10 per booking, double the standard £5 reward ‘Loot’. The incentive applies to 12 Virgin Voyages cruises onboard Scarlet Lady and Valliant Lady, departing in May and June, 2026.

In addition, the line is offering Sailors (guests) up to $550 free drinks per cabin on the 12 voyages. Sailing from Athens and Barcelona, destinations include Greece, Italy, Croatia, Spain and France.

SJ Walker, Virgin Voyages’ UK Director of Sales, said: “We know our First Mates don’t need overcomplicated offers, they just want something clear they can get behind and sell with confidence, and this does exactly that.

“Our Mediterranean sailings are already proving popular, especially with couples and groups of friends looking for a different kind of holiday, and with those free drinks on select sailings included too, there’s even more reason for agents to lean into that demand. Doubling First Mate Loot is a simple way to help them make the most of it while earning more on every booking.”

The trade incentive runs alongside Virgin Voyages’ current campaign, also available to book up to May 28, 2026. The offer includes:

• £750 instant savings
• Up to 70% off the second sailor
