Richard Branson’s Sky-High Gesture
In a remarkable act of generosity, Sir Richard Branson, founder of Virgin, surprised more than 150 passengers on Virgin flight VA 1316 from Melbourne to Hobart.
During a FaceTime call from his private island Necker, he revealed an unexpected gift—each passenger would receive a free Virgin Voyages cruise, valued at up to $7,000.
Branson’s Announcement from Necker Island
As passengers embarked on their journey, they were greeted with an announcement that resonated through the cabin. Sir Richard Branson, calling in from his British Virgin Islands retreat, shared the exciting news.
The chosen flight was no ordinary one; it mirrored the upcoming route of Virgin’s cruise ship, Resilient Lady, set to embark on its Mermaiden Voyage.
A Milestone Celebration in the Skies
Marking the occasion, Branson expressed, ‘To celebrate this milestone, I’m pleased to gift each adult on-board a free Virgin Voyages cruise.’
The unexpected announcement triggered cheers and applause among the passengers, who were then presented with their complimentary cruise vouchers.
A Mass Giveaway: Crew Included
This act of benevolence extended beyond passengers; cabin crew, baggage handlers, and pilots on flight VA 1316 were also included in Branson’s mass giveaway.
The total value of the gifts surpassed $1 million, showcasing the scale of Branson’s generosity.
Virgin Voyages’ Resilient Lady and Unique Features
The cruise line’s upcoming ship, Resilient Lady, scheduled to depart from Melbourne on December 11, boasts distinctive features.
Notably, it is an adults-only experience, offering unique amenities such as an on-board tattoo parlour. Guests can even request a glass of champagne from anywhere on the boat using their smartphones.
Global Adventures and Luxurious Seascapes
Providing a glimpse into the opulent world of Virgin Voyages, Resilient Lady has already charted courses through countries like Greece, Croatia, Dubai, Bali, and Singapore.
The cruise line promises an exclusive and adult-oriented experience, elevating the notion of luxury at sea.
