Senior Cruise Tips

Singles cruises for seniors

The short answer

There are two kinds of singles cruise for seniors: group sailings organized for singles by a travel company, and regular cruises with solo cabins and meet-ups. For most people over 60, a calm line with a solo program is the easier, cheaper choice.

Two ways to do it

  • A group singles cruise. A company books a block of cabins and runs events for its group. Check who the group is for — some skew younger.
  • A regular cruise with a solo program. Book a solo cabin and join the ship's meet-ups. Often cheaper and more flexible.
