Solo Cruiser's Roll Call

Nice pics. Am working on Alaska again...love HAL because Sitka is often a port.

 

 

 

It doesn’t have Sitka as a port, but I sailed Celebrity Solstice in 2016 to Alaska and it was fantastic. The ports were great, but the ship’s working relationship with the Corning Glass Blowing workshop and their onboard demonstrations was perfect entertainment with the glory of Alaska as a backdrop.

Just booked the Star Princess, re-positioning cruise from Santiago, Chile to Los Angeles, California - March 14, 2019. Both inside and oceanview were priced 35% off so pretty good deal for 16 days and 6 ports. I grabbed an interior as I plan to spend lots of time at the Terrace pool.

Sitka and Tracy Arm are faves for me. Hardly ever go without one of them on the itinerary. Have to do a longer cruise to get both though. Next trip will be #6 & I hate missing anything (except Skagway).

Holland does have several train/teach/learn sessions...haven't seen one with glass blowing though. Sounds great!

Shotput,

I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my wife of 46 years about 1 1/2 years ago. We so loved cruising together and had planned on at least 2 cruises a year.

Since I lost her, I have only gone on cruises with my immediate family but I have a solo cruise coming up in November. I tend to get a little misty eyed when watching sunrises and sunsets since we both loved them. But mostly I just remember how much my wife loved cruising and I try to enjoy them for both of us. She was such a fine person and if she enjoyed cruising so much, it must be a good thing.

Enjoy your cruises and remember the good times.

I lost my boyfriend seven years ago and sail solo also. I have two coming up. The first is in September on the Harmony, and the second is in November on the Anthem. Any chance you are on the Anthem also?

Right now I'm just considering if I want to take one of the cruises my wife and I used to take (mostly Mexico) or to try something new. We were Platinum members on Carnival, so most of our cruises were with them. Enjoy your cruise.

So far I have only cruised on Carnival and NCL. My solo is coming on the Epic in November and I have another family cruise in March on the Conquest.

Enjoy your cruises and don't forget to enjoy life.

Which November sailing are you on? I have the 25th 11 night booked solo.

I just booked my 4th Alaska cruise. I was able to get a great Solo rate on a balcony $499 thru Princess Casino rate with $800 casino cash and $30 OBC. Its for July 7th southbound on Golden Princess.

I have not been on this ship before but just got off a Caribbean 10 day cruise on May 11. This will be my 10th solo cruise.
