Virgin Voyages Casino launches Sea Roller Rewards Program
Virgin Voyages Casino has recently released its Sea Rollers Rewards Program! Virgin Voyages, as of now, will NOT be doing a "status match" program to match other cruise line's loyalty statuses.
You can earn 1 point for every $5 wagered on a slot machine, $10 wagered on video poker. For table games, points are based on average bet, hands played, and game type. You have 12 months to earn tier status, followed by another 12 months to sail with your status perks.
Your earning cycle operates on an annual basis (May 1, 2024, to April 30, 2025)
Once you've earned enough points to achieve your status tier, you retain that status until the end of the following status year.
Receive access to your current tier benefits and the chance to level up on each voyage throughout this earning cycle.
How many points should players aim to get on Virgin Voyages to get a complimentary cruise?
Virgin's onboard certificates are specifically designed for booking sea terrace cabins, or balconies because they make up 80% of their ships. If you accumulate 8,000 points, you will qualify for a sea terrace offer. However, even if you fall short of earning 8000 points, they have alternative offers in different cabin categories that may be available to you.
How do players book a complimentary cruise certificate from Virgin Voyages?
Players can book their earned certificates from Virgiin with their URComped Host or directly through Virgin. Even if you choose to book directly, your URComped host will still be credited. We work closely with Virgin and appreciate the opportunity to book your trip for you. Additionally, if you earn onboard certificates while playing, you can still utilize them by calling your URComped representative to book, ensuring the certificate is honored. Taxes and fees are required for all comp voyages. Taxes & fees range from $150-$200 per person depending on the itinerary and all bookings will cancel within 48hrs if payment hasn’t been made.
Will Virgin Voyages comp any onboard charges for players?
Virgin manages casino perks in a standard manner, assessing them based on your play. Onboard charges can be covered when your gaming activity justifies it, and the casino host is available to provide information on your eligibility. Additionally, they provide complimentary voyages during your cruise. As part of our program, you'll also receive regular emails, including quarterly and monthly updates, offering various tactical incentives. Feel free to inquire with Virgin's casino hosts about the benefits you qualify for.
What is the Daily Limit to Withdraw on Virgin Voyages? Can you set up a credit line or wire money?
Virgin's standard daily limit is $3,000, but they do have the flexibility to extend it up to $10,000 based on your play. Accessing cash for play is made convenient by tapping your wearable device at the gaming machine or table, allowing you to withdraw funds instantly. If $10,000 is still too low a limit Virgin offers a straightforward wire process. They don't currently offer credit lines. By completing a wire form and submitting a copy of your ID, Virgin can wire the funds promptly. If you happen to win, they ensure your winnings are returned to you within five business days.
Do URComped players receive free drinks in the casino on Virgin Voyages?
Yes. Virgin Voyages provides complimentary drinks within the casino you play. The majority of our beverages have a value of up to $15 per drink, allowing you to enjoy a martini or a glass of wine at no cost while playing at a blackjack table or any other casino game.
Are there fees for URComped players while withdrawing money?
Virgin has a VIP manifest for those who pre-book a casino voyage, entitling them to complimentary drinks within the casino and waiving onboard fees. These benefits are seamlessly linked to the wearable device provided upon boarding. This wearable will act as a guest's player's card and room key. Players will scan it on the machine before they start playing and scan out of the machine when they are finished. Utilizing the wearable not only allows you to receive free drinks but also ensures that you are recognized as a VIP when you enter the casino, facilitating a personalized experience.

Slots were tight to me & Slow elevators & dated rooms
The casino slots were tight and table games were even worst. They were hand dealing most of the games and I thought it would be better than the machine shuffle but I actually had the worst luck ever. Not one hand pay for me. The elevators were extremely slow. I had to walk up and down steps. The elevator actually went out of service while several of us were on it, and one lady started hyper ventilating. It opened up about 5 minutes later. It was a very scary moment. The rooms need some updating with more plug. For a Junior Suite the bathroom counter top was small and the furniture is dated. The Windjammer was meh. Carnival has the best hamburgers by far.

Amazing birthdays
Took my niece whose birthday is three days after mine . This was her first cruise and what an impression ! From the room attendant to crew, all made it an incredible vacation. Bring out a slice of cake and singing happy birthday at dinner topped it off for us. Beautiful ship and staff.

My First Virgin Cruise
The ship, food, and entertainment are amazing! I will definitely sail with them again. The casino is not my favorite. It is small and not much variety. I found Rakin Bacon machines in the smoking room which paid good the first night. They tightened up after that. They have Dragon Link but they didn’t seem to pay anything big. There were some hand pays but not as many as I have seen one other ships. Thankfully I had one the first night.
