Branson and McAlpin continued: “We are so excited for the future of Virgin Voyages as an experience for our Sailors and as a business”. Scarlet Lady has three sister ships coming and Virgin Voyages’ fleet will be bold and bright with a focused approach to addressing climate change through a commitment to a net zero carbon future.
