Rare alanstarr Posted October 2, 2021 #1326 Share Posted October 2, 2021 As others have mentioned, solo cruises out of Europe this fall are crazy cheap. Haven't pulled the trigger yet, but I'm looking at a 10-day NCL out of Athens on Nov. 14th; I can book a solo balcony with 'free at sea' (open bar, specialty dining, wifi, etc) for $1921 all in. Stops include Israel, Greece and Turkey, sounds amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nferr Posted October 8, 2021 #1327 Share Posted October 8, 2021 NCL Epic November 21. 15 night sailing from Rome to NYC. A studio room with all the perks included is at $1421. That's with the drinks package, 5 nights specialty dining, 500 minutes internet, etc. and gratuities on the packages included. Some nice ports too. I'm tempted. You do have to book your own airfare to Rome. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't get double points for a studio like you do for booking solo in a double occupancy room. And there is no "Solo Lounge" to go with it -- it's just a smaller room in a random part of the ship. Oddly enough, the few times I've been on a ship that had one available, they were more expensive than a regular inside booked with the Single Supplement.

Rare geoherb Posted October 20, 2021 #1333 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I've been tracking prices of several Princess cruises for December. I noticed tonight that the single supplement is now lower on a lot of them. It was previously 100 percent. Now there are several cruises with single supplements from 38 to 48 percent. (Some cruises for the weeks I'm considering, unfortunately, still have 100 percent single supplements.) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never go on a balcony (I like shade and a nearby hot tub, pool, and bar/waiter), so it's a waste for someone like me. In my case, the inside room with the extra Crown & Anchor point works best. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinkr2 Posted November 3, 2021 #1345 Share Posted November 3, 2021 The Jewel of the Seas is also very cheap for The February 6th sailing. 440 I believe was a balcony. I booked but am not solo so I have lost the exact number. But good deals in all categories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseScrooge Posted November 6, 2021 #1346 Share Posted November 6, 2021 MSC Meraviglia in march 7 nights $257 plus $150 port charge. fantastica class, easy + drinks, wifi package, outside high up mid ship cabin i picked $50 onboard credit being a past passenger helped msc did massive screwups reservation wise dumping people who booked long ago into gty just before i booked. i won't be surprised or unhappy if they move me to a lousy cabin since i may have unknowingly taken someone's cabin. i'd love to be offered a deal to downgrade to inside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niknot Posted November 23, 2021 #1348 Share Posted November 23, 2021 If anyone is interested in Hurtigruten, they have a number of offerings that do not have a solo supplement added. I believe it is a part of their Black Friday sale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laberge Posted November 24, 2021 #1349 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Low single supplements on Princess cruises to Mexico or Caribbean from November through January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdee3636 Posted November 24, 2021 #1350 Share Posted November 24, 2021 2 hours ago, Laberge said: Low single supplements on Princess cruises to Mexico or Caribbean from November through January. The e-mail I got two days ago from my Princess cruise consultant said that the single supplement on "select" Mexican Riviera and Caribbean cruises through the end of January, 2022 is now ZERO. I checked a few Caribbean ones in January, and they all came through with the zero supplement. One example; a balcony cabin on the Sky Princess for a 7-night Eastern Caribbean sailing on January 22 is $956 for one person, plus $150 taxes and port charges---about $158 per day in all. Even if you throw in gratuities and a beverage package you've got a balcony to yourself for under $250 a day. If you don't mind being on an older ship, a similar 7-night Jan. 9 sailing on the Caribbean Princess is $736 for a solo balcony, plus $155 taxes and port charges---$127 a day. Pretty good deals, in my opinion. Jim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
