Sarah Bretz, ContributorVirgin Voyages has announced that its Annual Pass will be returning for 2026.
After debuting its 2025 Annual Pass on Travel Tuesday last year, the cruise line has decided to make available its 2026 version early, giving travelers plenty of time to plan. The 2026 pass is even better than the 2025 version, and will include:
- A complimentary one-week stay on Necker Island, Richard Branson’s 74-acre retreat in the British Virgin Islands
- Roundtrip business class flights and ferry transfers from anywhere in the continental US to Necker Island
- Daily opportunities for Shake for Champagne with Moët delivered anywhere on-demand
- Virgin Voyages’ signature red hammock to take home
- Special birthday upgrade to a RockStar Quarters suite
- A $10,000 shopping spree in the High Street shops featuring brands like Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, MAC, and more
- One curated and privately hosted Shore Thing (shore excursion) every quarter (or four per year)
- A beach, grove, or poolside cabana at Virgin Voyages’ Beach Club in Bimini (limited to 10 times per year)
- Personalized RockStar robes
The 2026 Annual Pass costs $199,000 USD.
“After Richard Branson went on Good Morning America to talk about our Annual Pass, there was so much excitement and buzz,” said Nicole Huang, Virgin Voyages’ Senior VP of Sailor Experiences. “It’s truly an industry first and there were long queues to learn more. Our voyage planners shared feedback of Sailors inquiring about 2026 now, so we thought ‘why wait?’ and added a few elements to make the package a little suite-r.”
Pass holders can choose a start date of January 1st, February 1st, March 1st, or April 1st, and the pass will be valid for one year from the desired start date. Sailors must book between now and March 31, 2026.
Annual Pass 2026 includes options to sail aboard the line’s newest ship, Brilliant Lady, which is set to make her Alaskan debut in May 2026 from Seattle. It’s available on a first-come, first-served basis. But guests aren’t limited to Brilliant Lady. The pass allows them to sail on any ship, on any cruise, valid for one year from the selected date.
Travel advisors who sell Annual Pass will earn a commission of $10,000. Annual Pass is not combinable with other offers or Bar Tab. Guests will earn Deep Blue Extras upon booking.
