This comes ahead of the Barcelona debut of Valiant Lady in May and the introduction of third ship Resilient Lady in Greece in August. Resilient Lady will then sail from San Juan, Puerto Rico, in the winter, while Valiant Lady’s eight-night 'Eastern Caribbean Antilles' itineraries will include a stop at San Juan.

Puerto Rican 'first mates' (travel advisors) will have access to Virgin Voyages’ extensive sales tools, Seaciety social networks and Seacademy training seminars.

16% commission

Starting now, they can earn a 16% commission for new reservations on Valiant Lady and Resilient Lady, with no NCFs.

Virgin Voyages said it's working closely with the Puerto Rico chapter of the American Society of Travel Advisors and other key partners to share information with travel advisors in the area.

Connect with John Diorio

First mates will have the opportunity to meet with John Diorio, VP North American sales, in the coming months to learn about the brand.
