luv2cruuse Posted September 14, 2022 Report Share Posted September 14, 2022 I’m not sure if this question has been asked before but I searched and couldn’t find it. I’ve gotten a few comped cruise offers but none for the dates my husband can go on as his PTO from work doesn’t reset until 4/1/23 so I was thinking of doing a short solo cruise. Can someone do a solo cruise on a casino royale cruise offer where only taxes and port fees have to be paid? TIA Skippy67 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattycruise Posted September 15, 2022 Report Share Posted September 15, 2022 Absolutely and you only pay them for you AND if it’s not a designated solo room you’ll get double points! luv2cruuse and CruisingOz 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2cruuse Posted September 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2022 So the solo cruiser supplement fee is not an issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A casino comp is a free cruise for the gambler who earned it. It’s only one port fee/tax unless you add the second person , then you pay the additional port fee/tax. Gratuities, are per person sailing. I’m not aware of any solo supplements-I’ve never paid one. You can upgrade your cabin, that’s an additional charge-sometimes within $100, other times it could be near or over $1k-it depends on the ship capacity/demand. you could also add more than one person, but that’s going to cost more than port fees and taxes….

mistertomatohead Posted September 15, 2022 Report Share Posted September 15, 2022 This is also true with myVEGAS casino comps. I’ve done two of them solo this year. The real question to me is how does it impact your future offers? Do they attach a dollar value to your comps like land based casinos and therefore value it like double occupancy? luv2cruuse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could grab a friend, but thinking that I will instead just go alone. We are D+ so an extra 7 pts won’t push me a lot towards Pinnacle, but it is something! Good luck on your adventure! luv2cruuse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted September 15, 2022 Report Share Posted September 15, 2022 As plenty have said you pay the port taxes and fees for 1 unless you want to bring someone. My last solo casino comp was in a VB and I paid $176 with gratuity and the virtual balcony(VB) upgrade. That was 5N. There was no solo supplement associated.

Yes. The caveat is they have to have rooms available through the casino to book solo. Some room categories don't allow solo bookings. It's typically not an issue unless the casino has a lot of bookings on the particular cruise you want, then the choice is limited. Worst case you book for 2 and no show the second passenger and get refunded their port taxes after the cruise. However doing this they won't give you the extra C&A point for sailing solo any longer.
