Our Story

The Platinum Standard is how we serve.

Hi, I am Cameron DeJong, founder of CamJon Travel and a Virgin Voyages Top 100 First Mate in North America. CamJon Travel exists because Virgin Voyages is not a traditional cruise line, and Sailors deserve planning that is just as intentional.

CamJon Travel is not starting over. This is the same CamJon care, evolved with sharper systems, clearer guidance, and a deeper focus on Virgin Voyages planning. The heart of it is simple: fit before fare, strategy before shortcuts, and relationships before transactions.

Before travel, I spent nearly two decades in corporate leadership at Verizon Wireless and in healthcare technology. My work centered on customer experience, team performance, systems, service recovery, and the small details that make people feel taken care of.

Service roots

A little Southwest heart, a little Virgin energy.

One of my earliest inspirations for customer service was the spirit of Herb Kelleher and Southwest Airlines. When I worked at Verizon, I tried to bring that people-first energy into my everyday work: with my team, my customers, and everyone around me.

I will never forget mailing Southwest a letter about an amazing flight crew, back when that was how you shared feedback. They sent me a heart shaped gift in return, and that stayed with me. It was simple, human, and memorable.

Great service should feel like someone cared enough to make the experience personal.

Southwest has changed over the years, as many brands do, but the spirit of service that Herb represented should still live in how we treat people. That idea is a big part of CamJon Travel: clear systems, yes, but never at the expense of heart.

Southwest taught me Service can be warm, memorable, and operationally smart at the same time.
Virgin America showed me A travel brand could feel polished, relaxed, modern, and genuinely fun without losing its edge.

My first real introduction to the Virgin brand was not through music. It was Virgin America. Flying from Boston, it was my favorite way to travel: amazing crew, chill vibe, and the kind of atmosphere that made the journey feel like part of the trip. That same energy is a big reason Virgin Voyages made sense to me so quickly.

When I entered the travel industry, I saw too much transaction-first booking. Quick quotes. Generic recommendations. Pretty buttons. Not enough listening. Not enough context. Not enough honesty when a sailing was not actually the right fit.

The Platinum Standard is not a gimmick or a paid tier.
It is the way we approach every Virgin Voyages planning relationship: fit first, clear guidance, thoughtful systems, transparent expectations, and genuine care.

The cruise moment I never forgot.

My first cruise was on a smaller Royal Caribbean ship, and I had a nice time. But I also remember how quickly the traditional cruise model could start to feel like a running tab.

We wanted something outside the main dining room, and suddenly it was $35 per person here, another charge there, and a lot of small decisions that made the vacation feel less simple than it should have.

Then came the final morning. I remember seeing what felt like hundreds of people lined up at Guest Services, many of them looking at their folios with the same shocked expression.

The energy was not excitement. It was more like, "What did I break?" or "How did this balance get so high?"

That moment stayed with me because I think it is one of the reasons many people say they do not cruise. They do not want to spend vacation wondering what costs extra, what they missed, or what surprise is waiting at the end.

The old stereotype Upsells, surprise charges, confusing choices, and the feeling that the real price keeps moving.
What caught my attention Virgin Voyages felt like a cruise line intentionally challenging that reputation for adult travelers.

Not everything in travel can be included, and not every outcome is controllable. But Virgin's model felt more modern, more transparent, and more aligned with how I believe adult travelers want to feel: relaxed, respected, and not nickel-and-dimed at every turn.

That is why CamJon Travel is relationship-focused, not transactional. We do not just help you choose a Virgin Voyages sailing. We help you understand the model, the value, the tradeoffs, and the details so you can walk aboard prepared instead of spending your vacation wondering what you missed.

The CamJon Identity

The new look finally feels like the way we serve.

CamJon Travel has always been built around more than booking a cruise. The refreshed identity gives that promise a clearer shape: premium experiences, expert guidance, optimistic energy, and personal care from the first conversation through the final return home.

The ship and wave reflect our deep focus on Virgin Voyages and the feeling of moving toward something memorable. The CJ keeps the brand personal, because CamJon Travel is not a faceless booking engine. It is a relationship-first planning experience led with care, context, and accountability.

The ocean teal brings clarity, calm, and forward motion. The voyage purple brings premium service, personality, and trust. Together, they represent what we want every Sailor to feel: confident, prepared, excited, and genuinely seen.

The identity is not just decoration.
It reflects the standard behind the work: thoughtful guidance, clear expectations, premium details, and a planning relationship that still feels personal.
Premium, personal, cruise-focused

A visual identity built around the way CamJon serves.

The refreshed identity brings together the ocean energy of Virgin Voyages, the personal nature of CamJon Travel, and the elevated planning experience our Sailors expect.

🚢 Voyage Focus

Our expertise lives in Virgin Voyages and the planning details around the sailing.

💜 Personal Care

The CJ keeps the brand tied to relationship, ownership, and accountability.

🧭 Clear Guidance

The goal is a voyage that feels curated, prepared, and calm.

Elevated Energy

Premium without being cold. Polished without losing personality.

Ocean Teal Clarity, calm logistics, ocean energy, and forward motion.
Voyage Purple Premium service, trust, personality, and elevated planning.
🚢

The ship and wave

They point directly to where our expertise lives: Virgin Voyages, ocean travel, movement, and the actual sailing experience our Sailors are preparing for.

💜

The CJ mark

The initials keep the brand personal. CamJon Travel is not built around anonymous booking-engine energy. It is built around relationship, ownership, and care.

🧭

The feeling behind it

The overall shape is about guidance and motion: a voyage that feels curated rather than chaotic, with someone helping you understand what actually matters.

💎

Premium Experiences

Curated, elevated, and built around details that make a trip feel unforgettable.

🧭

Expert Guidance

We help make sense of the fare, cabin, dining, hotel, transfer, and planning choices.

☀️

Fun & Optimistic

Travel should feel exciting before you even board. Clear does not have to mean cold.

Personal & Dedicated

Your voyage is not just a reservation number. It is a relationship that deserves focused care.

Meet Cameron

Premium planning, with a real person behind it.

The systems matter, but so does the person guiding you through them. I want Sailors to know they are working with someone who loves travel, loves music, cares about community, and genuinely pays attention to the details.

🎹

Four 80s music cruises and counting

Some people have a favorite cruise memory. I have a whole soundtrack. I have sailed four 80s music cruises, and I fully believe a great trip should have personality, energy, and at least one song you are still humming months later.

🎧

An eclectic soundtrack

My music taste is all over the place in the best way. Missing Persons, Men Without Hats, A Flock of Seagulls, Berlin, plus plenty from the 60s through the 00s. I like polish, but I also like personality.

🏀

Basketball brain

I am a huge basketball fan, which probably explains part of my planning style. Matchups matter. Timing matters. Chemistry matters. The same is true when matching Sailors to the right ship, sailing, cabin, and fare.

🌎

Rooted in Southwest Florida

CamJon Travel serves Sailors across the country, but we are proudly rooted in Southwest Florida. Community matters to me, including involvement with Rotary and the kind of local relationships that keep a business grounded.

Inspired by service with heart

Herb Kelleher's Southwest spirit shaped how I think about people-first service. The best systems in the world do not matter much if people do not feel respected, seen, and taken care of.

💜

Virgin America was the gateway

Before Virgin Voyages, there was Virgin America from Boston: great crew, relaxed energy, and a vibe that made flying feel different. That feeling is part of why Virgin Voyages clicked for me.

A little strategy, a little sparkle

I like a trip that feels effortless because the thinking happened before you left home. A good vacation should not require a spreadsheet and a prayer once you are already on board.

The Difference

Not average travel agency energy.

CamJon Travel is built for adult Sailors who want more than availability and a price. We help you think through the experience, not just the transaction.

🧭

Fit Before Booking

If you have not sailed Virgin Voyages before, the Perfect Cruise Quiz is the starting point. We want to understand whether Virgin actually fits you before we ever talk cabin numbers.

🎯

Strategy, Not Guesswork

Cabin location, fare type, Bar Tab, dining timing, hotel logistics, transfers, and port choices all matter. We help you understand which details are worth caring about.

💬

Honesty Over Pressure

We would rather tell you a sailing is not the right fit than push you toward a vacation you may not love. The right match matters more than the fastest yes.

⚙️

Systems With a Human Heart

Behind the scenes, we use structured planning, reminders, playbooks, and check-ins. In front of you, it should feel simple, personal, calm, and unmistakably human.

How We Work

The journey has a path.

A deep website and a cruise line with unique rules can give Sailors a lot to read. The Platinum Standard gives that curiosity direction.

New to Virgin? We start with fit. Returning Sailor? We help you level up the plan. Already know exactly what you want? We keep the path clear and focused.

1

Confirm the Fit

The quiz helps us understand your travel style, budget, vibe, dining preferences, destination goals, and whether Virgin Voyages is the right match.

2

Build the Strategy

We compare sailing options, cabin locations, fare types, perks, timing, and logistics so your choices are informed instead of random.

3

Prepare the Details

Dining, app setup, Ready to Sail, hotels, transfers, excursions, and port guidance are organized around your actual voyage when included in your planning scope.

4

Sail Prepared

You receive communication, reminders, and a pre-sailing playbook so you are not stepping aboard cold.

The Support Model

Cameron leads the strategy. The experience stays connected.

CamJon Travel is personal, but it is not casual. The goal is to give Sailors thoughtful guidance, clear ownership, and connected support without making the process feel complicated.

Strategy Lead

Cameron DeJong

Cameron leads the Virgin Voyages strategy: fit, sailing selection, cabin logic, fare guidance, and the bigger decisions that shape the experience.

Real Sailors. Real support.

The Human Behind the Systems

A little polish, a little personality, and a lot of care.

I believe modern travelers are trading checklists for connections and souvenirs for stories. My job is to help you craft that story with enough structure that you can relax into it.

What is CamJon? CamJon Travel was founded by Cameron DeJong. Jonathan, my partner of 18 years, is the silent partner and the "Jon" in CamJon. Together with our three furry CEOs of Fun, Butters, Decy, and Penny, we call Babcock Ranch, Florida home.

Babcock Ranch is built around thoughtful design, sustainability, and a little bit of optimism about what the future can look like. That is probably part of why Virgin Voyages resonated so strongly with me. It is a cruise line willing to rethink many of the old rules.

That spirit also reminds me of what I loved about Virgin America: the crew, the mood, the music, the lighting, the confidence, and the relaxed feeling that the brand actually understood the traveler. Virgin Voyages carries a lot of that same DNA at sea.

CamJon Travel is my way of bringing that same spirit into planning: less noise, more intention, a better path from curiosity to confidence, and service that still has a human heartbeat.

And yes, if you ask me about 80s music, basketball, Scarlet Lady, or why I think the right cabin placement can change the entire feel of a sailing, I will probably have thoughts. Many thoughts. Helpful ones, though.
