Luxury Cruising with No Single Supplement

[Cdn_Traveller]

I am looking for a luxury cruise like Regent Seven Seas, Seabourn, etc. that has no single supplement.

 

I am looking to travel in December 2023 and be home by Christmas.

 

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanking you in advance.

Sometimes the various luxury cruise lines will offer selected cruises in their lower level cabins with no single supplement. Those are usually on cruises that are "less desirable" as to location, etc. I'd look at each line's website and see if they have a link for "Specials".

Needs this specific are probably best answered by a travel agent.  Some luxury lines do have no-supplement specials,but probably not in December.

First three weeks of December in Caribbean is not a particularly desirable time.

My suggestion is to forget about single supplements.  Focus on per diem.   Set what you are willing to spend begin the search.

Hello @Cdn_Traveller - You can check out Ponant. They have a number of cruises where they do not charge single supplement.

@saminina off topic, but I'm going to Downieville in a week!  Nice change of scenery for a couple of days!

no they are not , they call themselve luxury 

it is not because a ship does carry a vast and vertical collection of Ch Latour  ( very expensive Bordeaux)  it is luxurious 

Ponant is 4 starred    food is not luxurious at all !!

Interesting, I liked the food on the ponant cruise and I was wondering what other luxury cruises look like. 
We did have a caviar tasting and a pata negra tasting, we also had lobster and foie gras. Are you thinking they day to day menu was not fancy enough to qualify for a luxury cruise? or the choices?

I don't think fancy has anything to do with luxury, per se, because fancy doesn't equal top quality.  All the lobster (ick) and caviar (meh) won't make for luxury dining if they're not good quality, well prepared, and well served.   Maybe it was on Ponant (I've never sailed with them), but "fancy" or expensive items alone don't make for luxurious food or dining.
