Congratulations to your girls! I will be graduation college in May and my parents gave me a solo cruise on Oasis of the Seas leaving May 14, 2016. I'm a single mom, so my parents are keeping my daughter for the week as well. I am looking forward to this trip because working, school and being a single mom is exhausting. I was surprised that RC didn't have any graduation decorations available to purchase. I know my parents looked and they were disappointed that it wasn't available to purchase as a surprise for me.

As far as your girls are concerned, I'm sure they will be grateful and surprised with whatever you decide. Just knowing you're proud of their accomplishments will make them happy.

Can you still benefit from s price drop if you have already paid your balance in full?

This will be my 3rd cruise overall, but first time as a solo cruiser. Anyone else going on Oasis of the Seas on 5/14/16?

Any single or solo cruisers going on RC Oasis of the Seas on 5/14/16?

I figure this would be a great way to meet other single parents for further cruises and to share experiences of previous journeys.

Star Nola TA April 21

Empress Baltic May 11

Great idea! I see a bunch of singles posts but nothing about single parents. I am actually a single mom and taking my daughter who is 4 on Carnival Fantasy in December. She will be turning 5 on the trip. This will be my 2nd cruise total and my daughter's first.

What ship are you booked on? And do you have just 3 booked in the cabin? If it is not one of the 8 Fantasy class ships and it is just 3 of you, you have the option of moving up to a room that has a sofa bed for the 3rd person instead of the upper bunk. The oceanview & balcony rooms on these larger ships will have a sofabed for the 3rd. The sofabed sits even a couple inches closer to the ground, compared to the regular beds.

It's just the two of us and we are sailing on Fantasy.

There is a rail on the bed. You could put a pillow next to it.

Thank you! I've thought about that, but I wasn't sure if that would be enough since it is pretty high off the floor. She sleeps in all types of crazy positions and I would hate for her to somehow slip off through any available opening.

What is the best and easiest way to prevent a child from falling off the upper during the night?
