Did you hear the news? 👀👂🏾

🚢 Beginning Oct 7, 2025, Virgin Voyages is rolling out a new way to book!

Sailors in Insider, Sea View, and Sea Terrace cabins will now get to choose from three new fare options:
✨ Base – least expensive + most restrictive
✨ Essential – similar to the current way to book
✨ Premium – best perks + most flexible

Rockstars and Mega Rockstars — you’ll keep all your perks and now get to book dining starting 120 days before you sail (instead of 60!).

What do YOU think? Do you love the idea of straightforward pricing or do you think tiered pricing is a good idea?

👇 Drop your thoughts — I’m curious how my fellow cruisers feel about this change!

I’m here to help you navigate which fare tier makes the most sense for your next child-free getaway — so you can lock in the best perks, package, and the best price.

From an eclipse letdown to a 🤠Texas cosmic showdown! Almost 7 years ago I made the 12hr trek to Nashville to view the eclipse. Mother Nature had other plans 😩

🌒 In one week, I get another shot, right in my own backyard - 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Deep in the heart of Texas!

Whether you’re a seasoned eclipse chaser or a first-time observer, Texas offers the perfect vantage point for this cosmic event.

Attracting people from around the globe, several counties have issued a 🚨disaster declaration ahead of the eclipse warning of traffic and potential gridlock. Here’s a few reasons why Texas is the ultimate viewing spot:

1️⃣ Sky’s the Limit: With a path that sweeps across the state, Texas has the longest duration of totality in the US. From the wide-open plains to a funky rooftop, Texas offers diverse locations for an unobstructed view of the eclipse.

2️⃣ Clear Skies: With its typically clear skies and minimal light pollution, Texas provides optimal viewing conditions for capturing every moment of the eclipse.

3️⃣ Texas Hospitality & Festive🎉Fun: Experience the warmth and hospitality of Texas locals as you join fellow eclipse enthusiasts in this unforgettable moment. Dive into the culture with festivals and events happening across the state.

🔭 Eclipse Viewing Tips:

🌕Safety First: Don’t forget your ECLIPSE glasses (not your regular sunglasses), binoculars, or telescopes for a closer look. 🚫Never look directly at the sun without proper eye protection or lens filter.

🌘Stay Informed: Check local weather forecasts and eclipse timing to ensure the best viewing experience.

🌑Capture the Moment: Bring a camera or smartphone to snap photos of this rare celestial event. Utilize a tripod for stability, and make sure to use a lens filter to protect your camera lens.

🌒 Share the Moment: Invite friends and family to join you for an unforgettable eclipse viewing!
