Mrs. H. Posted August 28, 2022 #3953 Share Posted August 28, 2022 So I booked a cruise for the end of Nov. Some years ago my dh and I met another couple on the cruise and stayed in touch with them on FB. Turns out the woman and her g/f are traveling the same time. Even said I could/should hang with them, so last night i/o booking the sail away club balcony, I went with a regular balcony which is super close to their cabin. I'm happy that I'm near someone I know, just in case. Feeling much better about this cruise now. Only 90 more days! lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whee-sailing Posted August 29, 2022 #3954 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Thanks to an amazing sale and no solo supplement a couple of months ago...I will be on the Celebrity Millennium for three southern Caribbean cruises Feb 11, 18, and 25 out of San Juan. This will be my first solo cruise, but I travel solo often (am travelling solo in Quebec right now.). Any other solos here on this cruise yet? So far the roll call is all couples and large groups. And it was pointed out that the first one is a Valentine's Day cruise. Yikes! I never thought of that. Won't be going to the MDR that night. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs. H. Posted August 30, 2022 #3955 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I booked a solo cruise for November. I hope I find someone else who's solo so I can treat them to a specialty dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSnJW Posted August 30, 2022 #3958 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Did you check the Roll Call for that cruise? If there isn't a Roll Call for that cruise, you could start one. I'm sure that someone would be glad to go with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spleenstomper Posted August 31, 2022 #3960 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I think I’m doing my first solo cruise sept 11, 7 nights, Alaska from Seattle and back on HAL. My husband has been slammed at work short handed so he can’t go and I’m miserable sitting at home alone, so I think I’m going to do it. I’m waiting for 2 friends to decide if they want to go or not and then I’ll book. I’d prefer a roommate, but I’m completely ok by myself. A balcony is about $649 a person. So with that x2 plus port charges and fees, I guess it will be about $1500? Not bad I think for Alaska and HAL. I’m waiting for the planner to get back to me with a price. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs. H. Posted September 11, 2022 #3966 Share Posted September 11, 2022 So I just returned from a solo land trip to Orlando. My g/f and her b/f drove up 2 hours to come visit me for lunch. Saw SIL, BIL and NIL. Niece took me to Univeral. Now looking forward to my trip to TN next month where my cousin will show me around and my solo cruise in 75 days. Nice to be making wonderful new memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seniorsailors Posted September 17, 2022 #3972 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I don’t know what to say. I booked a cruise for November 26, 7-day to Mexico from LA on Celebrity Solstice. Just me. I was too mad not to, too sad not to. My husband died last year and I am tired of staring at the walls. We loved to cruise. I still do. I don’t know if I’m going to meet people or talk to folks or make friends or why I am doing this. I’m not even getting off the boat, I just need to watch the water go bye. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a trip we had planned together for a 50th wedding anniversary. I promised him I would go and I did and I was also brave enough to wonder around Germany, Belgium and Southampton by myself. It was a wonderful trip. I met wonderful people that made this 23 journey so much easier. The hardest part of the trip was getting on the ship and when I had his burial at sea. It was such a wonderful trip that I have booked another long sailing for next year. Get on the ship, make new friends, have a wonderful time. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
