Having sailed on this ship before, we can tell you firsthand that the experience is truly hard to describe in words; it’s something you simply have to feel for yourself. From October 29 to November 15, 2026, we’re embarking on a fantastic 17-day journey from Los Angeles to Miami aboard the Brilliant Lady. This is a sophisticated, adults-only escape designed for those who truly deserve to indulge in world-class dining, elevated entertainment, and the breathtaking experience of a Panama Canal transit. It’s time to leave the everyday behind and sail into your most indulgent era yet, because you’ve earned it! We love the inclusive vibe onboard! Virgin Voyages is incredibly lifestyle-friendly and hosts wonderful meetups for the LGBTQ+ community. To keep expectations clear: this isn’t a ‘lifestyle’ or ‘play’ cruise. There are no private party rooms or clothing-optional areas, with the exception of the signature topless sun deck, which opens up once we are out at sea.
