Solo Travellers Saving Money: Part One
The cruising industry is looking at making cruising financially
more attractive to solo travellers who usually have had to pay
large surcharges to stay in cabins designed for twin occupancy.
Over the next few episodes I will share tips for solo travellers
wanting to go cruising, for example: Cruise on a line that has
dedicated solo cabins.
There many lines that offer solo cabins on some of their ships. New
ships coming on stream seem to have solo cabins as standard and so
look at the newest ships in any fleet.
The following are best known for their solo cabins:
- Cunard (Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria).
- Norwegian Cruise Line. They have a specific solo guest haven on their newer and larger ships.
- P&O Cruises. They have solo cabins on all of their newer ships including Azura, Ventura, Arcadia, Aurora, Oriana and Britannia.
- Fred Olsen. All their ships offer solo cabins.
- Costa Cruises have some single cabins, both inside and outside, on half of its ships.
- Royal Caribbean are starting to offer more options. The new ships, Quantum of the Seas and Anthem of the Seas, have solo “studio” cabins on each ship.
