I was trying to book a November cruise on Eclipse from LAX to Cabo. The per person rates looked great. $449 for Oceanview and $499 for Concierge balcony.
When I went to book it I noticed that Inside, Ocean View guarantee, and Concierge guarantee cabins were available for doubles but not singles. The least expensive I could book for a solo was an ocean view for $1,942.93 and the same cabin class in guarantee is $1,011.86 for two people. A $900 penalty for traveling alone.
I contacted Celebrity via that chat tool and was told it is what it is.
I could book a fake second like my son person who no-shows, but now I'm just angry.
