What time is room ready on Scarlett Lady?

[chrisuscga01]

First time cruising Virgin next month.  I am in a suite and will be boarding around 130pm/2pm.  Are the rooms ready for us to go directly to with such a late boarding? If not, what time do the rooms become available?

 

Thank you.

ALL the rooms are ready when boarding begins.  That's another amazing change from other lines.

On our last cruise we had the 1:30 terminal arrival time.  We were in our cabin by 1:45 and our luggage arrived by the time we had dropped our carry ons and used the bathroom.  We opened the door to go to lunch and found the suitcases!

As a suite guest, you will initially be directed to a lounge where you can meet with the concierge providers (they have a different name on VV, I think it is Rockstar Host).  THey will serve champagne and make any additional reservations that you may want before you go up to your cabin,

The reason for the late boarding is that VV does not rush you off the ship on the last day.  THe last time to get off is 10:45, meaning that you have time to get up in the morning and enjoy breakfast before you have to vacate your cabin....but late disembarkation means that we have the later boarding as well.

Do you know if there is a difference in this procedure between Rockstar vs Mega suite guests?

As a Mega, the host is supposed to come to you in your suite, but there is nothing preventing you from going to the meeting in the lounge should you opt to do so.  In either case, the suites, like all other rooms, are available at the time of boarding.

for megas, you're supposed to go straight to your suite - your roadie meets you there, then you go through all the perks, what your preferences are and (for us at least) ask them a million questions - liquor swaps, "room service" from restaurants, etc. 

 

going to the manor would have been a total waste of time for us when we sailed mega, as our roadie was able to quickly do everything we needed (or find someone herself to get it done).  the manor serves st louis sparkling rose and has reps from the spa, box office (entertainment), and restaurant reservations floating around.  we just used that time to hit bars around the ship and get drinks that we actually wanted!
