Virgin Voyages is dialling up adults-only adventure with a new 30-day Alaska Summer Season Pass for 2026, offering a full month aboard the line’s newest ship, Brilliant Lady, on a series of immersive, kid-free cruises roundtrip from Seattle. Framed as a “residency at sea” rather than a traditional holiday, the programme taps into booming demand for quiet luxury and adult-only travel, giving guests extended time among glaciers, wildlife and long summer sunsets with Virgin’s signature style.
A month in Alaska aboard Brilliant Lady
The Alaska Summer Season Pass is valid on Brilliant Lady’s 2026 Alaska season, with four 30-day windows between late May and late September. Prices for two guests sharing a Central Sea Terrace cabin start from about US$26,000 for the May–June period, rising to US$38,000 for peak summer and ranging between US$35,000 and US$36,000 for later departures. Most underlying sailings are seven-night itineraries roundtrip from Seattle, calling at classic ports such as Ketchikan, Juneau, Sitka and more, so pass‑holders effectively string together consecutive voyages while keeping the same stateroom throughout.
What the Alaska Season Pass includes
Each pass covers accommodation for two adults in a Central Sea Terrace balcony cabin and bundles in a suite of extras designed for long stays. Guests receive daily drink credits, up to US$250 per person in shore excursion credit, a dedicated Glacier Discovery excursion, access to the ship’s thermal spa, upgraded “Work From Sea” Wi‑Fi, complimentary laundry for the full 30 days, priority boarding and exclusive welcome events with the crew. To help travellers fully embrace the frontier, Virgin Voyages also provides a gear package that can include items like a Canon G7X‑class camera, binoculars, backpack, jacket and reusable water bottle.
Adults-only, quiet luxury at sea
As with all Virgin Voyages sailings, the Alaska Season Pass is strictly adults‑only, ensuring 30 days with “zero kids” onboard. CEO Nirmal Saverimuttu notes that guests can experience Alaska’s glaciers, wildlife and rugged coastline without sacrificing comfort, design or the brand’s sense of discovery, and without sharing decks and lounges with families. Onboard, Brilliant Lady delivers Virgin’s always‑included approach to dining and entertainment, with multiple restaurants instead of buffets, nightlife‑driven programming and later port stays that give more time ashore in Alaska’s towns and wilderness.
For travellers seeking a slow, immersive way to experience “The Last Frontier” and lean fully into kid‑free, design‑forward cruising, Virgin Voyages’ 30‑day Alaska Summer Season Pass on Brilliant Lady stands out as one of the most distinctive new cruise products for 2026.
