The Virgin Voyages status match offer will run today (April 24) through Friday, April 26. Virgin Voyages will open up its Sailing Club Status Match to honor other airline and hotel loyalty programs. Travel loyalists part of Marriott Bonvoy, American Airlines AAdvantage, Delta SkyMiles, and Hilton Honors (among many others) will gain access to Virgin Voyages' "Blue Extras," with things like one free bag of laundry, specialty coffee, access to an exclusive cocktail event and more.  Typically this Status Match program only applies to other cruise loyalty programs such as Carnival's VFIP and Royal Caribbean's Crown and Anchor Society, but now, avid travelers can jump the line and get some perks that they would normally have to earn by sailing at least three cruises to get. ## Contact Your Travel Advisor To Book Your Cruise To take advantage of this, contact your travel advisor - We recommend calling: Heather Hills: 630-779-9302 so she can help you with full details.
