Century Travel Group and Cruise.com.cy introduce online bookings for Virgin Voyages

Century Travel Group and Cruise.com.cy have announced a new partnership with Virgin Voyages, becoming the only digital home in Cyprus for online bookings with Virgin Voyages.

As the only cruise specialist in Cyprus, this new partnership between Cruise.com.cy and Virgin Voyages makes for an interesting pairing, offering a unique proposition for travellers in Cyprus to enjoy a unique, adults-only cruising experience, onboard a transformative lifestyle travel brand that has the quirkiness and humour that Richard Branson’s brands are known. This is coupled with a high-tech booking experience on www.cruise.com.cy that is dedicated to the Millennial traveller seeking out unique destinations and authentic cruising experiences via a new ease-to-use digital platform that adds real value to this extraordinary cruise experience, an announcement from Century Travel Group and Cruise.com.cy notes.

Founded in 2008 with an ambition to become the leader in the cruising industry in Cyprus, Century Travel today boasts over 15 years of success in the Cyprus cruising market, having partnered with the best world cruise lines to offer exceptional cruising experiences for travellers sailing from Limassol, as well as from ports all around the world. Through the launch of Cruise.com.cy earlier this year, Century Travel Group essentially gives access to online searching for over 25,000 cruises all around the world, with all the leading cruise lines and most recognisable cruise ships, including Virgin Voyages.

Promising to Create an Epic Sea Change for All, Virgin Voyages is the award-winning, exclusively adult cruise line founded by Sir Richard Branson. Delivering unforgettable, relaxing vacations at sea, Virgin Voyages launched at the end of 2021. Inspired by superyacht design, its fleet of Lady Ships exemplifies an elevated, boutique hotel at sea with contemporary spaces that strike the perfect balance of nautical chic and glamour. Currently departing from the sun-soaked cities of Miami, Barcelona, and Athens - and soon to include Melbourne - the fleet offers more than 60 unique itineraries, sailing to 100 incredible ports of call.

On-board, 20+ eateries feature culinary experiences from Michelin-star chefs, stylish workout spaces and group fitness classes are offered daily, and a festival-like line-up of intimate and larger-than-life shows are on the agenda. Paired with modern, tech-savvy cabins, designer suites fit for a rockstar, and a mermaid-inspired spa and thermal suite, the brand is taking the industry by storm. In 2023, Virgin Voyages won Travel + Leisure’s highly coveted World’s Best Award for the best mega-ship ocean cruise line and swept the Cruise Critic Cruisers’ Choice Awards - the first time a brand has won in all five categories.

Dan Essex, CEO of Century Travel Group, commented, “Virgin Voyages - this extraordinary company - was founded on the idea of connecting people and celebrating all of life’s special moments. At Century Travel Group, our vision has always been to be the ultimate choice for the Cypriot traveller looking for cruise experiences, and we’ve achieved that. Our new partnership with Virgin Voyages as the only digital home in Cyprus for online bookings with Virgin Voyages allows us to extend our vision to travellers living in Cyprus even further.”

Virgin Voyages’ reimagined voyages offer more opportunities for travellers to extend their holidays and explore the world at large in 2024 and 2025. On the agenda with Virgin Voyages’ newest ship, ‘Resilient Lady’ for Summer 2024 are the popular “Greek Island Glow” to the islands of Santorini and Mykonos; “Adriatic Sea and Greek Gems,” sailing along Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast before stopping in Kotor and Corfu; and finally “Starry Nights in Greece & Croatia,” which offers a mix of the other two seven-night itineraries.

Virgin Voyages’ ‘Scarlet Lady’ will soak up the Mediterranean sun in 2024, with two seven-night itineraries: “Irresistible Med” and “French Daze and Ibiza Nights,” as well as a 16-night Transatlantic voyage from Rome to Miami. This new itinerary boasts calls in Funchal (Madeira, Portugal) as well as Santa Cruz de Tenerife (Spain).

Cypriot travellers can enjoy a high-tech booking experience in Greek language when booking their first voyage aboard Virgin Voyages for Summer 2024 on www.cruise.com.cy and make their cruise booking online between with an easy and safe payment procedure. Alternatively, customers can speak with a dedicated cruise specialist by calling 80004242.
