Virgin Voyages is doubling First Mate loot, offering sailors up to $550 in free drinks | News

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

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

In addition, the line offers sailors (guests) up to $550 in free drinks per cabin on the 12 voyages. Sailing from Athens and Barcelona, ​​with destinations including Greece, Italy, Croatia, Spain and France.

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

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

The trade incentive runs in parallel with Virgin Voyages’ current campaign, which can also be booked until May 28, 2026. The offer includes:

Immediately saved €750
Up to 70% discount on the second sailor
