Adults-only cruises have become increasingly popular, but one new vacation package takes the idea a step further. JetBlue Vacations and Virgin Voyages have teamed up on a trip that is kid-free from the very start, beginning with an 18-and-over flight before guests even reach the ship. The Do Not Disturb package contains its cost and how it can be booked.
A fully kid-free getaway
The Do Not Disturb package combines an adults-only JetBlue charter flight from New York to Florida with a cruise on Virgin Voyages, a cruise line that only welcomes guests 18 and older. The idea is to keep the entire trip child-free, from the airport gate to the ocean.
Why the brands teamed up
Virgin Voyages CEO Nirmal Saverimuttu explained that many travelers are tired and looking for a vacation that can reacquaint them with either a lover or a friend. He said the combined deal is a “unique journey” for the entire family, and “kids-free” from start to finish.
Takeoff from JFK
The four-night trip begins on March 4, 2027, at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport. Guests will board a charter flight to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, with an in-flight toast to mark the start of the vacation.
Straight to the ship
After landing in Florida, travelers will be transferred to PortMiami and receive priority boarding. They will sail on Brilliant Lady, Virgin Voyages’ newest ship, and enjoy a private welcome party on board with a custom cocktail.
Key West and Bimini
The cruise will stop in Key West and at Virgin Voyages’ beach club in Bimini, in the Bahamas. Saverimuttu said this itinerary is the cruise line’s most popular voyage, making it a natural choice for the first flight-and-cruise package.
What it costs
Package is $2,750 per person (2 guests) plus taxes and fees. This includes the cost of the round trip airfare, the cruise fare, tips and airport transfers, and a $100 Bar Tab drink credit per cabin. There are only 60 cabins.
Extra perks
The first 60 guests to arrive at JFK will get access to JetBlue’s BlueHouse lounge before the flight. Travelers will also earn rewards with both JetBlue and Virgin Voyages’ loyalty programs, adding extra value to the trip.
How to book
Bookings opened at noon ET on October 21, and reservations can be made by calling JetBlue Vacations at 1-844-528-2229. For now, it is a one-time offer, but JetBlue Vacations says its cruise business has doubled this year and hinted more trips could follow.
