Hi all. I frequently cruise with Celebrity Cruises as a solo traveller. I appreciate and understand we pay twice in order to have our own stateroom unless a single room is available. Since celebrity have separated the all inclusive fares you are quoted a price for the stateroom and an add on supplement to have drinks tips and WiFi included at a rate for the entire cruise. For example £400 per person. Sadly, in the case of the single traveller, we are made to pay the same supplement for drinks, tips and Wi-Fi as two people. So I would also be expected to pay £800 extra. Surely this cannot be right and is blatant discrimination against single travellers? Oddly enough if a single room is available you only are expected to pay one supplement for the drinks tips and WiFi add on ie £400. Surely paying twice for the stateroom if occupying a regular room should cover the fact you are a single traveller, and you should not be hit again by having to pay double supplement for what is one persons drinks tips and WiFi? I have been in contact with the Celebrity cruises Executive office and they seemed surprised but have not done anything about it.

Totally agree. Imagine going to a bar on land and being told because you are single you pay double for every drink. It’s bad enough we pay for two peoples food, travel and entertainment by booking a stateroom for one. interesting that they only change once for all included package if you book one of the genuine single rooms so it can be done. It’s discrimination.

Hi all. Now that Celebrity bookings are cruise only and you now add on the always (no it’s not) included. Well….. If I book a cruise for next year for two people and add on drinks tips and WiFi the supplement for the add on per person is £300pp. If I book as a single I pay double for the cabin and then have to pay £600 for the add on. Surely it can’t be right that I pay the same as two people for the drinks tips and and WiFi?
