MIAMI — Virgin Voyages plans to set sail for Alaska in summer 2026.

Brilliant Lady, the newest ship in Virgin’s fleet, will wrap up its inaugural North American tour with 17 new voyages in The Last Frontier.

Access for pre-sale passholders opens this Thursday (Oct. 31), while itineraries go on sale for the general public starting Nov. 13.

Seven- to 12-night Alaska itineraries will depart from Seattle and Vancouver.

“We have incredibly high repeat rates, so our Sailors are always challenging us to seek new horizons; they always want to know ‘where else can we sail with Virgin?’ This brand is charting new paths, and the sold-out response to our Front(ier) of the Line passes earlier this year showed us just how sought after our Alaskan itineraries are,” said Nirmal Saverimuttu, CEO, Virgin Voyages.

Debuting in September 2026, Brilliant Lady will start its first season sailing out of New York, with voyages from Miami, L.A. and Seattle in the following months. The ship’s schedule includes a 16-night sailing through the Panama Canal. The bucket-list Alaskan voyages, however, really stole the show.

In addition to Alaska, the brand is unveiling an additional seven-night itinerary from L.A. Highlights include Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta.
