Thanks for all of the replies...I am looking forward to the cruise, excuse me, the Voyage!

On several forums I have been told that the Virgin Cruises "Experience" is quite different than other "traditional" cruise lines, but nobody gives any examples! Other than most of the usual charges are included in the price and nobody under age 18 is allowed, why is Virgin different? Thanks for your advice!

Hi: I am, or will be, a first time cruiser, (Difficult to believe but at age 73 I have never been on a cruise!), out of Miami on Virgin in November...I am sure this question has been asked many times, but my head is swimming with all of the details I need to figure out...I will be arriving at Miami International Airport so I will need a hotel shuttle...Then, two days later, I will need a shuttle from the hotel to the port...I would really appreciate any moderately priced suggestions for a nice hotel with either free or paid cruise port shuttle service that won't break my already broken budget! Your help and patience is appreciated!

I will be sailing on the Princess from San Francisco in October...Could someone recommend a hotel with airport transfer that also offers transport to the cruise terminal? Thanks a lot!
