Get Ready for Fun Next Month!

We can’t wait to spend Halloween week onboard the stunning new Virgin Voyage’s Brilliant Lady as we sail from Miami to the Caribbean. It’s time to prepare for your Atlantis holiday, and this is the first of several emails you’ll receive to help you plan. Please take a minute to read this entire email regarding the following:

  • Register Now with Virgin Voyages
  • Customize Your Vacation Experience
  • Dining and Show Bookings
  • Our Party Themes

Registration with Virgin Voyages is now open, and it’s a good time to start planning your holiday. Getting ready to sail takes only a few minutes and opens a world of possibilities for customizing your vacation. See below for some of the exciting options.

Register Now with Virgin Voyages
You should now register with Virgin Voyages directly in the Virgin Voyages App (available for free download in the Apple or Android app store). Registration only takes a minute and will be open until 9 am on October 25.

Your booking number with Virgin Voyages is as follows:

Please note that the Virgin Booking ID differs from your Atlantis confirmation number. Each room only has one Virgin ID. If “N/A” appears above, it means that Virgin is still adding you to the manifest, and we will send you an update in the next few days.

From there, you only need to set up your account on the Virgin Voyages App. Instructions are in the app. You cannot register on a laptop via the web, as it takes place in the App.

Please note that there are six steps in the registration process, but each only takes a minute.

Customize Your Vacation Experience
The absolute best way to experience these destinations is through an organized tour. You’ll make the most of your holiday by having something planned, even if it’s just an introduction to these exciting places.

There are four things you can do today:

• Book Shore Things to explore our amazing ports. Virgin has created some of the most engaging, energizing, and fun shore experiences in the world that are perfect for Atlantis guests. They are refreshingly different from other cruise ships’ offerings and exciting!

• Purchase a Bar Tab for a discount! This allows you to buy credit for onboard purchases and get some extra dollars to spend onboard drinks for you or your friends. It’s a sensational deal and only available before we set sail.

• Book Spa Appointments in advance. Virgin has the most gorgeous full-service spa on the high seas, with unique treatments that we know you’ll love. With limited sea days, we strongly recommend booking soon.

• Indulge in the optional “Touch of Romance” package, adding a sweet collection of sensational services for one low price. This limited new package offers each couple priority boarding, daily juice specials, a 3-hour Thermal Spa pass, one “shake for Champagne”, daily delicious bites, a special Sailaway event, and more! All for $250 per room but limited to 90 rooms!

Dining and Show Bookings
We have found that keeping most of the tables open for walk-ins allows you maximum flexibility. However, we will accept reservations in all restaurants for seatings from 6 pm to 7 pm.  This flexible system has worked fantastically well for our guests on all Virgin ships and provides you with plenty of options every night.

Shows can only be booked once onboard through the local network, but again, reservations will be easy, as we’ve added extra performances to ensure you can see everything you desire.

If you have any questions or issues with accessing your booking, please call Virgin directly on +1 954 488 2955. However, if their call center refuses to assist you because “This is a charter sailing” or similar statement, please call our team on +1 310-859-8800 and we will do our best to assist.

Our Party Themes
Brilliant Lady offers some of the best party spaces we’ve ever seen indoors and out! Costumes are optional, of course, but a little dressed-up fun adds some sparkle to our night parties and T-dances with the following party themes. After all, it’s Halloween!
 

Washed Up As we head deep into the Caribbean, creatures above and below the water line wash up on shore for a night of nautical silliness. Colorful sea creatures meet marauding pirates alongside a few mythical characters. Watch out for the occasional cruise ship passenger or TV sitcom escapee. We’re all lost together so who knows what might happen!
Ghostly White Step out of the shadows in dazzling white for a night of haunting fun at sea. Glow under the lights, dance with spirits, and bring your most spectral, spooky-chic looks to the ultimate ghostly celebration. Think ethereal spirits, icy phantoms, and ghoulish glamour as our ship transforms into a glowing underworld of fog, light, and sound.
Hallow-weird As the clock strikes midnight on Halloween, our ship suddenly disappears into the night, shrouded in darkness and filled with creatures from beyond our world. Time stops, past & present merge, and nobody knows who’s alive or not as every manner of ghost, forgotten crew member, faded star, and terrifying standard cruise passenger roam the decks.

You’re invited to tour our haunted hull at your own risk to witness the transformation for yourself.  Just be back on deck for a spirited costume parade and a full gathering of the LGBT (Lost, Ghostly, Bizarre, and Terrifying) community on the dance floor.

Neon Playground Fast, flashy, bright, and silly! We’re turning the Red Room into a musical playground bathed in laser light and filled with bouncy sounds to make you smile. Neon, sparkles, and lights are the way to go, and don’t take yourselves too seriously!
Dog Tag T-Dance The troops come home for Atlantis’ longest-running signature afternoon party. Show your creative strength at our first big outdoor party inspired by the joys of men in (small) uniforms. We’ll provide souvenir dog tags; you do the rest.
Thriller T-Dance It’s gonna be one thriller of an afternoon filled with the demons of the dance floor that never stopped moving as we celebrate the music that never dies from the heyday of the Disco era.

Bring out the unnatural fabrics and fashions that continue to haunt us, with a little Halloween twist. Think long lost divas, dance floor zombies, DJs from hell, celebrity ghosts behaving badly, or that guy who never seems to go home.

Classic 70’s and early 80’s music will transport you to a time long before we were all born. Right?

Twisted Pink T-Dance You cannot escape it, so let yourself get swept up in a world of pink silliness!  What started with a little Barbie fun has changed us all!  Let your imagination run wild and play out your favorite pink look for a hot afternoon of frivolous dolled up fun.

Thanks for reading this entire email, and we cannot wait to show you greatest Halloween you’ve ever seen next month!

About two weeks before departure, look for our Cruise Vacation Guide with our entertainment lineup and loads of advice on how to plan your holiday!

Thank you again for selecting Atlantis for your vacation!  It’s going to be an amazing experience.

Warm regards,
Rich, James, Jan, Ben, Marino, and the rest of team Atlantis!

Communication Timeline

About Three Weeks Before Departure
Register for your cruise with the instructions that we’ll provide by email. You’ll need to provide passport information and other details directly to our cruise lines to complete your registration. We typically send out this information by email about a month prior to sailing. If you’re booking within a month of departure, it might take a little longer for us to add you to the cruise line’s manifest.

Pre-Order Shore Excursions. We work closely with our cruise lines to create exciting shore excursions just for our guests. These optional tours are the best way to see these amazing places in the company of your friends onboard. Space is often limited, so booking in advance is the best way to plan!

Review our preliminary schedule including party themes. We try to keep our party themes simple enough that you don’t have to worry about them long in advance. You can create a sensational outfit, shop for something fun, or simply come as you are — either way you’ll fit right in and have a great time. Themes for your cruise will be sent by email and posted right here on the “Already Booked” page about 3 weeks prior to departure.

Two Weeks Before Departure
Read Our Cruise Vacation Guide with valuable information about your ship, the entertainment, our ports, packing advice, and so much more. We’ll notify you by email once this document is available for download.
