Silversea Cruises is wooing single travellers, reducing its single supplement to 10% above the per-person, double-occupancy fare for its Vista, Veranda and Midship Veranda Suites on four voyages this year; plus it is offering nine new sailings with a single supplement of just 25%.
The cruise line launched its new Solo Traveller fares in recognition of the growing number of men and women who are travelling alone these days.
All-inclusive fares include ocean-view suite (most suites feature a private veranda), butler service, complimentary wines and spirits, fine dining, sophisticated enrichment and entertainment programs, and all onboard gratuities.
