Richard Branson’s cruise venture Virgin Voyages will be full up in Miami as it brings two ships to sail from the Magic City this fall. So for its newest ship Resilient Lady, the line is venturing to Puerto Rico to take on the Southern Caribbean.
Resilient Lady completed it sea trials last week out of the Fincantieri shipyards in Italy. The line will take possession of the third of four planned sister ships in the coming months before its debut sailing Aug. 14 out of Athens.
It will spend 2 1/2 months in the Mediterranean before making the transatlantic sailing on Nov. 1 to Puerto Rico to begin a variety of itineraries from San Juan beginning Nov. 12.
