A high-tech cruise tour soon to be launched Down Under by tourism mogul Sir Richard Branson features a round-the-clock service with a difference, writes Sky News Australia Wine and Travel Editor Des Houghton.
Sir Richard will be in Australia in December to launch the adults-only Resilient Lady, the third vessel in his Virgin Voyages fleet.
Resilient Lady does not have an endless buffet in a central dining room like most cruise liners. Sir Richard banned them after a study found they led to food waste on a large scale. Resilient Lady can carry up to 2,770 passengers and will be a major new force in the growing Australian cruise ship market. Picture: Supplied
