“We’re buzzing with excitement as Brilliant Lady gears up to kick off her epic voyages from New York City this September,” said Virgin Voyage’s Sean Russo, Sales Director, Canada. “She’ll be sailing to some seriously stunning ports like Halifax, Saint John, and Québec City—talk about a dream itinerary!
