Yes, I assume this Solo Traveler Offer is only for North America as has been the case with similar offers in the past although it does not specifically say so in the terms and conditions as it has in the past.

 

There's an "Enjoy our Solo Traveler Offer for six days only" section on this "Solo travelers" page on the Cunard US website but not on the corresponding page on the Cunard UK website.

 

https://www.cunard.com/en-us/the-cunard-experience/solo-travellers

 

Here are the terms and conditions from the Cunard US website.

Nothing available for U K bookings

Interesting original post ,

I have been reliably informed from onboard voyage sales , although there are no single staterooms on Queen Anne ,  Solo Traveler prices will be available ( on certain itineraries ) sounds in line with Silversea who offer the same,    Hopefully the QA solo traveler prices will also apply to residents of the UK.

Does Saga cruise lines compete strongly with Cunard for the UK market? I ask because Saga seems to offer dozens of single balcony cabins vs. Cunard with very limited to none (QA). Cunard seems to be at a disadvantage I that category for UK’ers.

Quite. It is baffling to me that, having had seemingly great success with the singles they’ve retrofitted on the other ships, Cunard decided not to have them in QA from the start.

Yes that’s why I was in no rush to book anything for 2025.  Surprising . P &O ‘s Britannia and Iona have single balcony cabins. They are a bit small and to be honest would probably not have one again if I were to go on P&O again.

I an not sure. They are way over my budget so would never consider them. and I prefer to travel Cunard. I think their overall price would put off the other solo cruisers I know.

Solo traveller prices are always available on every voyage. Do they mean there are extra discounts available  on certain voyages ? Currently Cunard is 175% for single occupancy unlike Princess which is 200%. Current 2024 booking for Queen Anne is the standard 175%.

Given that the usual single supplement fare is 175% of the per-person double occupancy fare, does it follow that the promotional single fare is 1.75*0.75= 131.25% of the PPDO fare for a given itinerary?
Sounds pretty good.

Yes, that calculation is correct for those voyages where they are offering a full 25% discount. See this quote from the terms and conditions I posted previously.

 

"Receive an additional discount of up to 25% off the single supplemental fare, which will reduce the single supplemental fare from 175% to between 132% and 160% of the double occupancy fare on select voyages. Discount varies by voyage between 8% to 25% ..."

Cunard's fares in grills for solo travellers are 200% of twin share. This also applies to the fare I've booked for QA; re comment above, I haven't seen that the solo prices on QA are different to the usual Cunard formula.

There are 146 voyages included in this Solo Traveler Offer. Only 8 of those voyages are on QA. And just to make sure it's clear, the offer does not apply to Grill Suites (or Britannia Club).

Oh I forgot that. I don’t ever book Grills so wouldn’t have really thought about it. I can’t see any difference either in the QA prices away from the normal formula. Mine certainly isn’t for July 2024.I don’t think these extra discounts apply to U K sailings sadly.

indeed... I would have booked at least one more sailing for 2024 ... have been looking for something that will keep me from anxiety until we cruise for Christmas 2024.... the ones I would like to do, my daughter can't, the single prices with this kind of offer would get my booking  😞

I'll always see the world through the eyes of the Britannia passenger.
