I just finished the training courses for Virgin Cruise Lines. They differ from other cruise lines in many ways. There are no buffets, but specialty restaurants are included in the cost. All non-alcoholic drinks are included in the price as well as tips. An alcoholic drink tab can be bought in advance, giving you an extra $50 in credit if you purchase a $300 tab.
They also are very environmentally conscious, implementing measures to reduce climate impact, increase energy efficiency, and reduce waste on all their ships.
