I remember on my first virgin voyages sailing there were so many things that I forgot that
could have made my trip so much more smooth or would have made me not feel so out of place on
that cruise and so in this video I'm sharing with you what I'm packing for my third virgin
voyages sailing with Scarlet lady whether they are super important and do not forget to pack
these items or these will really help you to have a more fun or smooth sailing coming up
and if you're new here yo I'm Christine Lozada with where in the world is CL and I make travel
videos every week to help you get up get out and go travel so if you like to travel consider
subscribing this is one of a lot of Virgin voyages videos there's a full blog post in the description
below that talks through all of the items I'm going to share with you today and if you want
to score a heck of a deal on an upcoming virgin Voyage make sure you check out the description
because my friend will hook you up especially with that sailor looped so let's Dive In First
with the things that you must pack for this trip I've got seven items that will make you feel
like you may have totally blown it if you don't pack these items starting with something red in
other words one of the biggest themed parties on version voyages is Scarlet Knight this is
when everybody dresses up in well red Scarlet and there's really fun activities all over the boat I
love to go all out on Scarlet night and wear something whether just very ridiculous or very
fun but Scarlet Knight is a night to definitely wear red you don't have to go crazy literally
buying a red shirt from Walmart is perfectly fine but make sure you have something red so you feel
like you can fit in at this party and enjoy the fun the second thing Pajamas not pajamas to wear
into your own cabin or stateroom but rather pajamas for the PJ party there's a PJ party
under the stars but I blew it on my first cruise and that's because I didn't realize that sometimes
not always this party is held outside and so my pajamas were not ready for the wind and it was
slightly cooler than I anticipated and so I was wearing a towel over my pajamas so that I could be
warm and I just couldn't enjoy the party because I was cold so bring pajamas and consider bringing
pajamas that are cold weather ready this next one is really important because I I do I appreciate
that gratuities are included in virgin voyages but especially on my first sailing I was floored
by how amazing the service is on this Cruise it really is above and beyond a lot of the other
cruise lines that I sail with and I really wanted to thank some of the staff and at some points I
did not have cash on me we just love how awesome the staff is on this cruise and we want to show
our appreciation this is an optional one but I'm sharing it on this list because I felt like I blew
it by not having the amount of gratuity I wish I had in cash on my first sailing a passport I know
I didn't want to put that first and nor did I want to leave it off the list but my friends forgot
their passport and they had to drive all the way back home and they barely made their saline so do
not forget your passport a music speaker what this is Virgin voyages with association with Virgin
Records there's there really is really great music all over the ship but I do rant about this in the
things I hate about Virgin voyages video link in description below but one of the things is within
the room the you cannot plug up your own phone or whatever to play music and so I am bringing my own
speaker on board so I can listen to my music and jam while I'm getting ready you know because you
gotta have those good Tunes going on I was just reading some important news headlines one of which
is you will have a 15 higher chance of having fun on Virgin voyages if you cheers that like button
consider subscribing all right let's get back to it two bottles of wine ah I love drinking wine and
I do love that on Virgin voyages they're all about that Moet life but I like to bring two bottles of
wine on board especially because there's no drinks package right and so I like to use this allowance
not every Cruise Line allows you to bring wine on board virgin voyages does they do have a fridge in
every stateroom also helpful especially if you're bringing Champs champagne like I am bring a cork
you know in case you're not drinking straight out of the bottle and the whole thing in one sitting
and on their website they talk about how you are supposed to hand carry on your two bottles of wine
but I ain't gonna lie I don't want to carry that on the day I arrive is heavy and I want to get to
you know drinking the cold stuff as soon as I get on board and so I literally just stick it in my
luggage and if they take it they take it but you know they haven't so far so let's let's see what
happens on this trip and also don't forget yes you can bring two bottles of wine per stateroom not
per person per stateroom but you cannot bring on any kind of alcohol and if you're curious how much
drinking costs check the video in the description below and don't forget you're trying to save money
on this trip hook up with my friend who will get you an amazing deal info on that also in
the description below and the next one is don't get sick and the type of sick I'm talking about
is motion sickness pills whether it's drama mean but you know that makes me honestly really really
tired and so I like to bring motion sickness patches it's one of those things where sometimes
you will have a smooth sailing and everything is fantastic but wouldn't you much rather spend just
a couple bucks on motion sickness medication that you have with you versus a few days not feeling
well it's just not worth the trade-off these next set of items are going to help your Voyage to feel
so much more comfy and smooth which by the way I'm actually legit using my own pack list which
I made after my first trip it's kind of twofold one is like things you should have on a cruise and
then these are things specific for Virgin voyages that I find very helpful all of which we've talked
about in this video but if you want a printable pack list yellow this is available to you info
in the description below but here are some things that will make you comfy warm clothes for inside
if you're like me and you're going to warm places while you're sailing with Virgin voyages awesome
but they crank the air conditioning inside so make sure you have warm clothes for inside that
will help you to be more comfortable you want to know what's going to make your wallet more
comfortable not for getting Necessities so on my first trip I forgot a razor a single razor like
a one a one use razor uh disposable Razor cost me 16 I'd rather spend this 16 on alcohol and
so don't forget your Necessities um and oh this might be important don't forget there's actually
no luggage allowance limits on Virgin voyages in other words to date they don't have a limit on how
many pieces of luggages you're allowed to bring on some cruises do have limitations but virgin
voyages allows you to bring on as much as you want don't forget if you're flying in obviously
your airline carrier might have limitations to that but you could stop at a store buy all the
things that you need and bring them on board so don't forget your razor your sunscreen your
all the other things that are on the list around the Necessities that you might need
another one is Hangover help we really will Detox and re-talks repeatedly on this cruise and so
having things like I like to have Ibuprofen with me or Tylenol um some activated charcoal helps out
and another thing is I love I love drinking liquid IV for those of you who follow me on social media
you know I do some things with liquid IV but make sure you have a hangover cure for when you feel
that crap this next one is it's not fancy it's more fun or funny and that's around the type of
apparel you bring there's no formal nights there's no you know bring out the gown and the high heels
unless you want to it really is come as you are and I love to bring out some of my most fun funny
outfits that aren't necessarily fancy and I always go for comfort and bring your dancing
shoes because you really will get your dance on on this cruise and one of the other things that's
really different about Virgin voyages is they have an amazing fitness program there are so many fun
workout classes and it's really important to bring workout gear your workout shoes and participate
because you don't have to pay extra unlike other cruise lines to participate in these things so
whether you're doing the dance classes or the bungee classes or the shake weight workouts these
are all things that you should participate in but make sure you have enough workout clothes last
Cruise meatball didn't bring enough workout shirts and unless you plan on doing laundry on this trip
you're going to be stanky while you're doing those workouts let's talk about what not to pack because
there are a couple things on this list we talk about some of the toiletries and Necessities that
you'll need you know and they do they provide a lot of toiletries your shampoo your conditioner
Etc bring your own if you want some specific brands but they will also provide a hair dryer
so don't worry about packing your travel hair dryer for this trip also to leave at home is that
silly looking lanyard that ain't making anyone look stylish on any Cruise no land you're needed
because on Virgin voyages they use a bracelet so your bracelet is your ticket for all of the
things getting on and off the boat for pain for blah blah blah blah tell me in the comments below
uh if you think the lanyard look is worth the functionality there are plenty of things I like
to rock a fanny pack for the functionality looks pretty ridiculous I'm curious about your opinion
in the comments below and by the way if you have suggestions around things to pack make sure you
add them in the comments we're all a community three more things not to pack you don't need any
power adapters they will provide all of that stuff for you and there's plenty of outlets both in
the room and around the ship which is really nice especially if I mean sometimes you got to work on
application the next thing is anything flammable so even something like candles and you cannot
bring a drone so on Virgin voyages they have a strict no drones policy it's not even you can
bring it on board but you can't do it you can't bring it at all they will take it from you at
the Port so if you're wondering how someone has been able to fly a drone uh check out the info
in the description below because maybe I'll share that with you or maybe you'll find it in my drone
course on the day that we depart bringing on board with me on my person I will have
a refillable water bottle and that's because they provide water stations all over the ship they also
provide a carafe and cups in your room so you can refill it your Steward or stewardess will
also refill that for you but you can take it to the water refilling stations around the ship you
gotta stay hydrated so that I can get to drinking and one last thing to keep in mind because virgin
voyages just does things differently and that's why I made the video that it's not
for everybody it's really not for everybody and so if you're giving them a try don't forget to
pack an open mind the shows are different the way they do things are different and yo that's what
the industry needs we don't need more of the same stuff every day otherwise just keep standing with
the same people you've been sailing with try something new and come with an open mind it's
gonna be so fun if you want to score an amazing deal on your next cruise with some great sailor
loot make sure you check out that info in the description below yo if you got some value out of
this cheers that like button consider subscribing and I'll see ya on the next sailing ciao
