Purpose-Driven Experiences

“These partnerships represent more than just premium products—they’re living examples of our belief that business can be a force for good,” said Jill Stoneberg, Senior Director of Social Impact and Sustainability, in a press statement.

The Celebration Voyages spotlight three of the brand’s purpose-driven partners: Red Flower, Yellow Leaf Hammocks and Intelligentsia Coffee—each play a central role in Virgin’s onboard experience.

Red Flower, which provides Virgin’s in-cabin bath and body products, will host workshops where guests can craft botanical treatments using natural, cruelty-free ingredients. Yellow Leaf Hammocks’ founders and Thai artisans will demonstrate hammock weaving, giving guests a hands-on look at the sustainable craftsmanship behind Virgin’s signature balcony feature. Intelligentsia Coffee will serve curated coffee flights and lead guided tastings, highlighting ethical sourcing and brewing techniques.

In addition to these enriching workshops, Celebration Voyages will include activities like reef restoration excursions in Cozumel, a specialty Kettle One Earth Day cocktail benefitting Virgin’s nonprofit partners and onboard Impact Squad events encouraging guests to give back.

Virgin’s Impact Report also details the brand’s strides in reducing single-use plastics, increasing community engagement and enhancing transparency around its sustainability goals.
