When we would “Muster” we had to do a full on skills lab, get in the boats, put on the life jackets, learn the rules, etc! Did Matt get all of the hangars? And I am just like you, Elliot, I have to nest. Everything on a hangar, pressed and ready. I developed that over time. Love the video and the trip. I’m watching later, but really enjoying!! They will NOT let you skip the “mustering.” sounds like a pirates term, right?

Hey guys! Thanks for uploading this video. I just booked my first ever cruise on Virgin Voyages for October of 2023 on Valiant Lady. I'm doing a repositioning cruise from Barcelona to Miami on Valiant Lady. 14 days! I can't wait!
My husband and I did a Riverboat Cruise on the Mississippi River from New Orleans. It was fun, however....WE were the youngest people on the ship besides the crew!!!! That won't be a repeat cruise. It was nice being on an Adults Only cruise though. I was ready to get home and be in our own bed.
Handbags! Well that does it! I have to sail Virgin! :) Love the cabin! I want the water carafe at home! YES! I have to fully unpack as soon as possible! Now how did you walk past TACOS! BUT I love Sushi, too Matt! Best part of a cruise is trying ALL the foods! You are only a cruising newbie once so I am so glad you are relaxing and enjoying sail away. Miami is beautiful to sail out from. Awe, you just said what I just said... Goodness I wish I was there with you. Thank you for the shout out... I love logo gear for each cruise line! What an amazing embarkation day!! Whoo hoo! Welcome to cruise vlogging! You did great! HUGS!!
Hey hey! I did keep thinking during the cruise ‘Favor and Rob would LOVE this!’ We we’re very early boarding and The Galley area wasn’t fully stocked at that point including the tacos. The food onboard was absolutely out of this world. Just wait till we show you the ‘Test Kitchen!’ So pleased you liked the vlog I had no idea how they would turn out when edited. The entertainment was fantastic too! Lots of things happening all over the ship. Even on a back to back we didn’t get to see everything. Can’t wait till we are onboard together. Xxx
Elliot and Mathew, I so enjoyed watching your first cruise embarkation. When I saw you on the ramp just before getting on the ship, I started crying. I'm so jealous. I hope you two had the time of your lives and I can't wait to watch the entire series of vlogs. Hugs to you both.
Fabulous vlog! Thank you so much for posting this wonderful experience and am so thrilled that you guys are having such a terrific time. Feel like we are all along for the ride - kudos to you guys!
I have been on 12 cruises and it’s is the best vacation ever! I’m excited for you both because watching you on your 1st cruise reminds me of day 1-embarkation day which is always so exciting. Exploring the ship is a fun part of cruising too. Have fun!!! ⚓️
Loving watching your vlogs as always but especially your hol ones ! I kind of feel like I'm with you a wee bit. Matt is so excited, lol. Have a great time. Thanks for sharing with us 💕
Thanks for the video guys. Really lovely to be able to share your holiday. Hope you packed some clothes in a bigger size for the end of the holiday. Wouldn't be able to resist those cakes. All I can say is god bless elastic waist bands.
Love your channel & thank you for all the Virgin content! Including the pups went a long way to convince friends all are really welcome. 💜 Sailing on Valiant Lady in March :)
I thoroughly enjoyed your vlog! I am an avid cruiser and lover of the sea. I originally found you through one of my favorite vloggers, Favor. I am happy to welcome you both to the world of cruising. I hope you both had a fantastic 1st Cruise. Looks like you are really enjoying it so far. I can’t wait to see the rest of your adventures and port stops and, dining, and more of the ship.
@@ElliotNMatt so thankful you guys missed any storms! (I assume you’re back!) It’s been a good summer for the Caribbean up until this week and now there’s a huge one!
I'm loving your vlogs, darling boys. Happy cruising. I hope you get to see an overseas Maureen. Imagine that! She could be dancing the night away with pups, drag Queens and such, letting her hair down (gosh I hope she shaved where shaving needs to be exercised) going all out. If you find her don't forget to give the goss.
Hello lovely couple, You have a very wonderful trip in the USA Miami...... i know it. the ship and your rooms are so good an cozy. I love yoo two 🥰🥰❤❤ Love and greetings from germany Monika
Wow this showed us what it will really be like as we've only seen shorter cruise vlogs. Helped reassure us that we've definitely made the right decision for our cruise. Felt a bit overwhelmed with the size so imagine we will get lost but also we might end up taking boxes of the sushi back to the room!
Looks like an awesome embarkation day. I think I prefer Royal Caribbean cruises better although that looks nice. I’m not sure I could cruise for two weeks though. Looking forward to the next vlog!
@@ElliotNMatt as long as you both had a wonderful time, that’s what matters. I thought they were 7 day cruises but that was my misunderstanding. I’m looking forward to the next vlog xx
@@ElliotNMatt yeeessssss... free drinks is always a 👍👍 in my book! I need to watch the rest of your videos on Virgin Voyages. I've enjoyed yours the most
Thanks so much!! Hope you enjoy our cruise vlog series. We have another back to back in January. This time two seven days plus a pre stay in San Juan. We can’t wait to be back on board!
@@ElliotNMatt awwww you're missing my cruise by a few weeks then. We'll be on December 16-23! Have fun! I watch your home tours too wishing we could live in England. My family lineage has been traced back to King Henry VII. I'll stop! I could talk to y'all all day lol
How fun this is.....Matt looks appropriately excited! This makes me want to take a cruise, but I get terrible seasickness. Is all food included on the ship? Thanks for posting this fun cruise.
You had great timing, just missing Hurricane season, might I suggest an Alaskan cruise next time. So exactly how much weight did you both gain on the cruise?
Nice video! Could you recommend which restaurant I should choose for my bday dinner (I'm vegan)? My boyfriend and I are sailing on an 8-night cruise with Virgen Voyages this November :)
Do you feel sick when it’s moving - like you I was sick on a ferry to France and it’s always put me off a cruise - although I would love to see the Arctic
Dogs?? Yes, make sure to enjoy and relax is very important I think. I love the luxury, but would go crazy with the expected level of participation in activities, I think, I like to be in charge 🤔
I have to say that I'm not very impressed with the hotel you stayed in. The power went out, you can't use the lifts or go to the restaurants?? And the restaurant that *IS* open only takes cash? This seems really strange. And £40 for a couple of sandwiches? What a ripoff. I'm only 2 & a half minutes into the video but I'm so annoyed. Hope things are better on the cruise....
Love Matts dancing!
I could of watched more really enjoyed watching you guys
When we would “Muster” we had to do a full on skills lab, get in the boats, put on the life jackets, learn the rules, etc! Did Matt get all of the hangars?

you two are infectious! such fun! I can't stop watching
Glad you explained about the animal heads.i was wondering what it was all about!

Wow wow wow
You should bring the ruby tiara for your next cruise on scarlet night.
Hey guys! Thanks for uploading this video. I just booked my first ever cruise on Virgin Voyages for October of 2023 on Valiant Lady. I'm doing a repositioning cruise from Barcelona to Miami on Valiant Lady. 14 days! I can't wait!
What an Amazing Cruise!!! Loved the pajama party and the drag queen. Thanks for taking us along.
You go Matt!!!! you got some moves!!!!!! Have a blast guys!
We’ve taken 8 cruises so far, and loved each and every one of them. Thanks for sharing your vacation with us!!!
I worked on Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines many yrs ago.... Glad you like your holiday on the seas 🛳 🍹
My husband and I did a Riverboat Cruise on the Mississippi River from New Orleans. It was fun, however....WE were the youngest people on the ship besides the crew!!!! That won't be a repeat cruise. It was nice being on an Adults Only cruise though. I was ready to get home and be in our own bed.
The age range for this ship is very good. I'd say people are 25-45 mostly. I hope this helps!
Congratulations guys! A well deserved holiday! And thank you for bringing us along too!
That was a Fun Video !
Did you play with the Puppies ?
🤪😁😁♥️♥️😄❤️❤️
Wow fantastic vlog
I've just had to Google pups, Ooo I say you learn something new every day
It looks like you had an amazing holiday
Lol thank you!
Looks amazing!
I just about died laughing when you said Rainfall Shower. I am so happy you took us along on your cruise.
Wow!! The Best. Exciting. Bon Voyage. 🤗👍🎈🚢⚓
Elliott and Matt you took your cruise just in time! Key West and Miami are getting hit with some Hurricane Ian at the moment!
Great attire!! Nice and relaxing!! Love to watch you both! You make me smile❤
Loving your enthusiasm and balcony philosophies 🙏❤️

Thank you for the explanation. Each there own for sure ✌🏻
Always remember Port out/Starboard Home. (POSH)!😊
Love all your travel vlogs thankyou 😊
The show looked awesome! Lovely shots of Miami💜🌈⚘
Watching again,, adoring both of your boarding outfits! So flattering!
Oh WoW! First thing I thought of, on the back of the ship, was the Titanic! Y'all deserved this! 🤗
Great video! I was on the Sept. 11th sailing. One of the best cruises I have ever taken :)
It was amazing! We were also on the 11th.
Fabulous vlog! Thank you so much for posting this wonderful experience and am so thrilled that you guys are having such a terrific time. Feel like we are all along for the ride - kudos to you guys!
I love your vlogs!!! You guys seem so fun.
Absolutely gorgeous looking Ship...
Loved this! I'm going on the Scarlet Lady this Friday.
The ship looks incredible. I think it’s time i convince my husband to take us on a cruise😊😊

Awwww you guys look as though you're having the best time. Enjoy!!! Some great vlogging here - really enjoyed this. x
I'm humming the love boat theme as I watch, now its stuck in my head . 😁
Great video... I'll be there in 12 days. Can't wait.
You will enjoy it so much!
Loving watching your vlogs as always but especially your hol ones ! I kind of feel like I'm with you a wee bit. Matt is so excited, lol. Have a great time. Thanks for sharing with us 💕
I love traveling vicariously through you two! 🚢🏖⚓️🛟
I love travelling and watching you as well.
Can't wait! Our first cruise is on the SL in November. Looks fantastic!
This is fun. Look forward to the next episode.
Love Matt
Love it!! Looked like so much fun!❤
Great to see new cruisers soak up the new experience .so many shout outs to life with favor . Love them they are how I found your channel ❤🛳😊
Love as always to my faves Favor & Rob!
Thanks for the video guys. Really lovely to be able to share your holiday. Hope you packed some clothes in a bigger size for the end of the holiday. Wouldn't be able to resist those cakes. All I can say is god bless elastic waist bands.
Love your channel & thank you for all the Virgin content! Including the pups went a long way to convince friends all are really welcome. 💜 Sailing on Valiant Lady in March :)
Your welcome! There was such a mix of Sailors on the ship!
It looks fabulous! I think the shops may have been closed because they are duty free shops so they will be open once you set sail..
I thoroughly enjoyed your vlog! I am an avid cruiser and lover of the sea. I originally found you through one of my favorite vloggers, Favor. I am happy to welcome you both to the world of cruising. I hope you both had a fantastic 1st Cruise. Looks like you are really enjoying it so far. I can’t wait to see the rest of your adventures and port stops and, dining, and more of the ship.
It was incredible! Hooked on cruising now!!!!
@@ElliotNMatt so thankful you guys missed any storms! (I assume you’re back!) It’s been a good summer for the Caribbean up until this week and now there’s a huge one!
Yes back! We missed all the bad weather. So lucky!
Oh Matt, the outfit modelling put Elliott to shame!! Fantastic
I now want to go on a cruise! Enjoy, thanks for the ship tour.
I'm loving your vlogs, darling boys. Happy cruising.
I hope you get to see an overseas Maureen. Imagine that!
She could be dancing the night away with pups, drag Queens and such, letting her hair down (gosh I hope she shaved where shaving needs to be exercised) going all out.
If you find her don't forget to give the goss.
Loving the vlog . Really is fabulous 😊
You should always mix your suitcases in case one goes missing!
Hello lovely couple,
You have a very wonderful trip in the USA Miami...... i know it. the ship and your rooms are so good an cozy.
I love yoo two 🥰🥰❤❤
Love and greetings from germany
Monika
It looks amazing! I hope you had a lovely holiday. I've never been on a cruise before, we always go to the Maldives. I hope you both well 😊
Great vlog. We did this cruise beginning of August. I was apprehensive at first , but so sad to leave 😞. Xxx
Great. Have a great time x
What a gorgeous ship!!! You both deserved this!!!
MATT IS SO ANNOYING
@@JenniferCostanzo61 Oh no, he isn't! 😊
I’m just like you Elliot. I MUST unpack when I arrive and put my suitcase away. I can’t stand to feel at sixes and sevens.
This is great as I, m thinking about going on my first cruise 😊.
Loved this ❤️
Wow this showed us what it will really be like as we've only seen shorter cruise vlogs. Helped reassure us that we've definitely made the right decision for our cruise. Felt a bit overwhelmed with the size so imagine we will get lost but also we might end up taking boxes of the sushi back to the room!
The food was incredible. It is a big ship to navigate but you do get used to it.
I think we were on the same cruise because the puppies were on my cruise too. 😂
Oh wow, great to see a fellow sailor! Hope you enjoyed it too.
Luxury!
Love your guys vibe in your vlogs! Sub'd! And keep up the content!!!
Thank you! Welcome!
I really enjoyed this!
Nice
Nice bit of modelling keep on dancing xx🍾🍹☘☘
Looks like an awesome embarkation day. I think I prefer Royal Caribbean cruises better although that looks nice. I’m not sure I could cruise for two weeks though. Looking forward to the next vlog!
Hi Leigh. Thanks! The back to backs were not quite two weeks, the first cruise was 4 days the second 5. Plus we had the Miami pre stay day. X
@@ElliotNMatt as long as you both had a wonderful time, that’s what matters. I thought they were 7 day cruises but that was my misunderstanding. I’m looking forward to the next vlog xx
The rooms are always ready the minute you get on board!
Also you missed the sailing away party with free champagne!!
Yes missed it on both sailings. Will make a point of getting the free champers in January!
@@ElliotNMatt yeeessssss... free drinks is always a 👍👍 in my book! I need to watch the rest of your videos on Virgin Voyages. I've enjoyed yours the most
Thanks so much!! Hope you enjoy our cruise vlog series. We have another back to back in January. This time two seven days plus a pre stay in San Juan. We can’t wait to be back on board!

Its amazing!

Sail Away...Sail Away. Yoo whoa Sailor.
Amazing
You had great timing, just missing Hurricane season, might I suggest an Alaskan cruise next time.
So exactly how much weight did you both gain on the cruise?
Enjoyed video!
Nice video! Could you recommend which restaurant I should choose for my bday dinner (I'm vegan)? My boyfriend and I are sailing on an 8-night cruise with Virgen Voyages this November :)
Razzle Dazzle is the vegetarian/ vegan leaning restaurant so good choices there.
@@ElliotNMatt Thank you, guys! I'm so excited :)
Hi Elliot
Do you feel sick when it’s moving - like you I was sick on a ferry to France and it’s always put me off a cruise - although I would love to see the Arctic
No couldn’t feel anything and I took anti sickness pill everyday just Incase.
You could get view done as giant photo over fire Place at home?
You will cry when you have to come home!
I love eggs!
Looks like so much fun loved watching think I would put on a bit of weight with all those gorgeous cakes have a fabulous time love you both 💖
COVID THING - FOOD
Dogs??
Yes, make sure to enjoy and relax is very important I think. I love the luxury, but would go crazy with the expected level of participation in activities, I think, I like to be in charge 🤔
No pressure on the activities. It’s fun sometimes just to people watch!
Elliot, do you usually go commando? Please pardon the question if it’s offensive)
Underwear at all times!
Are they called Furries?
Pups!
I did wonder what was going on... 😅 I thought maybe you guys had forgotten your outfits for the evening...lol
Is there a Gym?
Yes! We show that in a later vlog.
I may have to think of a way to present gays on a virgin cruise on FB... Have a good time!
£40!!!!! Mind you, isn't the £ only worth a $ now?
a cruise is my idea of hell but I'm so excited for you two that I'm almost LOLling!
CABIN, not a room! It's a ship...
A floating Butlins my worst nightmare
@@robertreynolds323 a bit more class than Butlins! Our lads will love it. It's all rather camp...
Elliot, you have the best legs!!! 💜
Any Bears Underwear Parties ?
😙😄♥️♥️
I have to say that I'm not very impressed with the hotel you stayed in. The power went out, you can't use the lifts or go to the restaurants?? And the restaurant that *IS* open only takes cash? This seems really strange. And £40 for a couple of sandwiches? What a ripoff. I'm only 2 & a half minutes into the video but I'm so annoyed. Hope things are better on the cruise....
I think we were unlucky with the power outages. It didn’t seem like it happened frequently.
Wtf with the masks 😂
Drag artist was crap
