5 things I wish I knew before sailing Virgin Voyages to Alaska
Alaska on Brilliant Lady is a TOTALLY different vibe than the Caribbean sailings, and there's a lot people get wrong about what to expect on board.
I just sailed two of these back to back so I could show you what it's really like, the honest version.

Feel free to take this blanket from your cabin so you can stay cozy and enjoy the stunning views of Alaska!
Make sure they sail back to your room.
Otherwise a charge of $75 per blanket will be added to your Sailor Folio.
Enjoy the breathtaking sights! :)

This has been one of the TOP questions I get about Virgin Voyages Alaska, so here's your answer.
YES. The pool is heated. And honestly, more than I've ever felt before.
We had a gorgeous day in Juneau yesterday and a chilly one today as we're sailing through Canada toward Alaska. The air is cold, but the pool is warm and the hot tubs are SUPER toasty. A lot of people were chilling in them today.
Even better? They put fuzzy blankets out by the pool. You get them in your room too, but having them poolside is such a smart touch. Plus tons of towels, so you're set.
Don't pack the parka and skip the swimsuit. You'll be using both.

Rockstar cabin on Virgin Voyages out of Seattle? 🥂
THIS is your check-in area.
Tucked away, signage isn't clear yet, so just ask when you walk in.
Drinks, snacks, lounge seating, way less chaos than the main line.

5 things I wish I knew before sailing Virgin Voyages out of Seattle 🛳️
Pier 91 is brand new territory for Virgin which means a few growing pains. I just sailed the first two Mermaiden voyages and there were real curveballs the info online doesn't warn you about.
