JetBlue and Virgin Voyages will pair the airline’s first kid-free charter flight with a four-night adults-only cruise from March 4 to 8, 2027. The one-time trip, called “Do Not Disturb,” starts at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport and sails aboard the cruise line’s newest ship, Brilliant Lady.
The flight goes to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, where passengers transfer to PortMiami to board the ship. The return flight from FLL to JFK is scheduled for March 8. Guests must be 18 or older throughout the trip.
The trip is a charter, not a regularly scheduled flight. Passengers cannot book the flight by itself; the air, transfer and cruise come together as a package.
The charter is available only inside a two-person package
The package costs $2,750 for two people, including taxes, fees and gratuities. It includes two flights, a four-night cruise and private transfers. Bookings must be double occupancy, which makes solo travelers ineligible.
Inventory is limited to 60 cabins, or 120 guests, and will be sold first come, first served. The vacation package is sold through the airline’s vacation business, which is not working with travel advisers on this offer.
That distinction shapes the booking. A standard airline search will not turn up this charter, and the full trip is the only way to book a seat on it.
Call when reservations open, and watch the sales deadline
Reservations open by phone at noon ET on October 21, 2026. The sales window is scheduled to run through October 27, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. ET, or until the package sells out.
- Call 844-593-7581, the number provided for reservations.
- A separate booking listing gives 1-844-528-2229.
- Book for two people; single and solo reservations are not eligible.
- Reservations are first come, first served, and the offer is available while supplies last.
The package is not being sold through travel advisers. With only 60 cabins, availability depends on whether inventory remains when a call is placed.
BlueHouse access and premium seats have limits
The package includes access to BlueHouse, the lounge at JFK, but the descriptions of who qualifies differ. The airline’s terms limit access to the first 60 customers who arrive at the venue, on a first-come basis. Another description says the first 30 cabins booked receive access. The benefit is capacity-limited, not a guaranteed lounge visit for every guest.
Premium seating also depends on booking priority and inventory when passengers select seats. Travelers should not assume a particular seat will be available with the package.
The flight includes snacks and a complimentary signature cocktail for an in-flight toast. Gate giveaways and a “Happenings Cast” are planned before departure. On the ship, guests receive priority boarding through the RockStar entrance and lounge access, plus a private welcome party, cabin surprises and a dedicated cocktail.
Each cabin gets a $100 bar tab. Ten travelers will receive a separate $50 onboard credit, which can be used for shore excursions or a mud bath in the Thermal Suite.
The trip also earns JetBlue TrueBlue points and tiles toward Mosaic status, along with credit in the cruise line’s Sailing Club loyalty program.
Staff will move checked bags from FLL to passengers’ cabins
Cruise staff will meet guests at FLL baggage claim, check them in, tag their luggage and load it onto the shuttle to PortMiami. The bags are to be delivered directly to passengers’ cabins. The private transfer is round trip.
The ship’s itinerary includes Key West and the cruise line’s Beach Club at Bimini in the Bahamas. That stop offers a private beach with hammocks, daybeds and lounge chairs, Bahamian-inspired dining and a 6,200-square-foot lagoon-style pool.
Brilliant Lady can carry 2,762 passengers and has more than 20 eateries and entertainment options. The cruise line launched at the end of 2021 and operates four adults-only ships, each with room for about 2,700 passengers.
The companies say they may expand the test if travelers respond
Nirmal Saverimuttu, the cruise line’s CEO, said travelers are looking for ways to reconnect during time away. He also recalled the reaction to the adults-only model:
“Ten years ago when we said kid-free cruises, I think people thought we were crazy.”
Jamie Perry, president of Paisly, the company that runs the airline’s vacation business, described the offer as a way to give people time back. He said the cruise side of the business had doubled from last year and was on track to double again next year.
Perry said the companies could add hotels or departures from other cities beyond New York if the package succeeds. For now, the offering applies only to this cruise. The next date for travelers to mark is October 21, when phone reservations open.
