Virgin’s room service is called ShipEats, and it works like a delivery app. You order on your phone and the crew bring it to your cabin, or wherever you’re lounging on board. It runs 24 hours a day.
To be honest, we rarely use it: with 20+ eateries on board, we’d usually rather go out. But when we do, it’s for two things: breakfast on the balcony, and a late-night snack after a show.
Is ShipEats free?
The food is included in your fare. What you pay for is delivery:
- There’s a $10 delivery charge per order.
- It’s waived if your order includes $10 or more of paid items, such as drinks.
- RockStar and Mega RockStar suites get free delivery.
So the easy trick is to add a drink or two to your order: you’d pay for them anyway, and the delivery charge disappears. Paid drinks can go on your Bar Tab.
Breakfast on the balcony
This is where ShipEats really earns its keep. Order your breakfast in the app the night before and pick a delivery time, and it’ll arrive while you’re enjoying the view. Perfect before an early port day. If you’d rather go out for it, see where to eat breakfast on Virgin Voyages.
How to order
- Open the Virgin Voyages app on board and go to ShipEats.
- Pick your food and drinks, and choose now or a time slot.
- Say where you are: your cabin, or a spot on deck.
Late-night snacks
After the shows and parties, a late-night ShipEats order is a lovely way to end the night without heading back out. Add a nightcap and you’ve dodged the delivery charge too.
