Norwegian Cruise Line
Norwegian Cruise LineIf you want to travel solo in a bit of a different environment, why not try a cruise? Norwegian Cruise Line was the first cruise line to build staterooms and common areas exclusively for the single cruiser. Their studios are the perfect size for solo travelers, plus, hanging out in the Studio Lounge is a great way to meet other solo cruisers!
With a full-sized bed, flat-screen TV, and private bathroom, these studio cabins have everything you’ll need. Although all studios are inside cabins, some have windows that look out onto corridors. Studio cabins on Norwegian Bliss, Norwegian Joy, and Norwegian Encore have virtual portholes that stream in flawless ocean views!
Why Norwegian Cruise Lines
Exclusive Lounge
Your key card provides you with access to a studio stateroom and the Studio Lounge, a private lounge shared only by Studio guests. The Lounge is a great place to meet other solo travelers and is the perfect space to spread out, have a drink, enjoy a book, and just chill out and watch TV.
Solo Friendly Activities
If you’re looking to meet like-minded travelers, Norwegian Cruise Line offers meetups for solo cruisers. Some ships even host a pub crawl, and there’s always a happy hour. Lounge poolside, chill out at the Ice Bar, or take a margarita tasting class. Shore excursions are a great way to meet up with fellow cruisers, as well as participating in onboard activities such as the ropes course and climbing walls!
No Single Supplements
It used to cost a small fortune if you wanted to cruise solo; you basically had to pay double for a stateroom by yourself. But Norwegian Cruise Line has come to the rescue with award-winning Studio Staterooms, where no single supplement fees apply!
Experience What Norwegian Cruise Line has to Offer
Indulge your taste buds at one of Norwegian’s wide-ranging dining options, enjoy Broadway-style entertainment, get in the fast lane on a thrilling racetrack, or if you’re looking to relax head to the Mandara Spa for a hot stone massage.
