Quick Answer: Brilliant Lady is Virgin Voyages' fourth and newest ship — 110,000 GT, 2,770 guests, launching in 2025. Adults-only (18+), she will sail Caribbean and Mediterranean itineraries with all dining included. This page covers deck plans, live tracking, dining venues, and videos.

Best For: Adults who want to be among the first aboard Virgin's newest ship. Brilliant Lady suits travelers drawn to Virgin's unconventional style who want that new-ship feel — the same 20+ included restaurants and adults-only policy as her sisters, with the freshest interiors in the fleet.

Brilliant Lady is an identical sister to Scarlet Lady, Valiant Lady, and Resilient Lady — same 110,000 GT hull, same restaurants, same festival-at-sea atmosphere. As the newest in the fleet, she offers the freshest soft furnishings and the latest refinements, but the core experience is the same across all four ships. Her initial deployment covers Caribbean and Mediterranean routes. If you already know which region you want, choose by itinerary rather than ship name — Virgin's four sisters are interchangeable in everything except where they sail.
