Virgin Voyages has confirmed that it is returning to Portmouth with a series of short cruises, but dates have yet to be confirmed.
The cruise line’s first ship, Scarlet Lady, launched her maiden voyage from the UK port during the pandemic when its planned first cruise from Miami was unable to operate.
In a social media post earlier today, the line’s VP of UK Sales Shane Riley said: “The rumours are true, we’re returning to our British roots, and we couldn’t be more excited.
“Portsmouth was where we set sail on our maiden voyage and introduced what it means to set sail the Virgin way, so it has a very special place in our hearts.
“The best part is these series of ‘Portsmouth Shorts’ itineraries are just a fraction of the news we have to share.
“All I can say is stay tuned for epic news – we’ve got more sailing your way next week, and the new itineraries will be available to book starting Sept. 7.”
