Looking for a cruise companion

Hi Everyone, I hope you all are having a nice day! I'm Corrine, I just signed up. I googled, "how to find a travel companion and this site attracted my eye because we are all around the same age. I'm mostly interested in a cruise compatible companion.


When I post this on facebook, they thought I was crazy, lol but look I found on here, I'm not the only one searching. Long story short, I went on my first cruise with my sister in June 2019 to Alaska and I had the best time of my life! This was also my sister's first cruise so on the second day of our cruise we were looking to book our second cruise to the Mediterranean but she was talking about in 2022, I want to go next year!

Hello. Me too, just joined this minute! I did the same as you, pleased to have found this forum. Not sure how it will work for me as I am in Australia but I can travel to anywhere to join a cruise! And I have a UK passport. I’ve done a couple of cruises previously, with friends. But not everyone wants to travel at the same time as me, or wants to go to the same places.

I HATE how the cruise lines hit solo travellers, I feel it’s discrimination! There are more and more of us solo travellers out there these days, perhaps they should be thinking of different cabin configurations.

I have 3 cruises booked next year (with friends) but am already keen to head off again in 2024! And they’re not, If Russia sorts itself out I’d like to do a Russian rivers cruise and I quite fancy the USA Mississippi one on Viking, but other than that, nothing thought about seriously yet.

Good luck to everyone with their current plans!

Pamela Hi!
I'm new to this site say one week ago. I've never talked with anyone from Australia! Here I was starting to think this site really only represents the UK right or wrong. I'm retired from management in the Hospitality Field ie GM. I live in very west central Indiana ie area know as Fairview Park. I would talking should you agree.
Take care

Hello there. I was surprised to see lots of USA comments on the forum so good to know it's not just UK. UK is fine by me, but good to have other representation.

I travel a lot generally (forget the covid hiatus) but get riled up when I see cruise prices for singles. I do go with friends but sometimes it just doesn't work out hence my having a bit of a look online. I also get annoyed when special offers are issued but must be booked in a couple of weeks for 2 years down the track! Who knows what I will be doing in 2024 or beyond!

\cheers, from Down Under.

I am interested to go on world cruise with one or two cabin buddies some time early 2024. Girls only. Prefer from US west cost to Asia but open for other good ideas. This is the first thing on my list of retirement travel plan. I will be a golden girl by then.

I am a "young" 73 year old widow, done a lot of cruising, looking for female cabin mate. I would entertain any cruises. I hail from New Zealand. I am keenly interested in the Transatlantic cruise departing Venice In October - 27 day cruise - inexpensive when you look at all the ports of call and lots of sea days.

Hello Snowytaz. I'm 59, divorced, live in Birmingham AL. I saw your post and it sparked my interest. I've only been on one cruise and it was a family outing. Any specific cruise you are interested in?

Dear Corinne
It‘s a long time though, since you posted your lovely words about cruising. Unfortunately, I only joined today... May I kindly ask, if you still search a cruise companion? Cruising means the world to me...
I am almost 70, (trying to be) a gentleman of the „good old European school“ and cruising means the world to me. If these few words can make you curious, please let me know, and certainly I would provide all the details, thoughts, etc. You can best reach me at my email [email protected].
Thanks meanwhile!
Avi

I am hoping to find a cruise companion for a trip round the Med in May 2020 aboard Royal Caribbean Allure of the seas.
I love the line as there is so much to do aboard the ship, or you can do nothing if that’s your thing. I am currently planning to do the cruise with my son and his partner, but don’t want to intrudetheir space.
If anyone is interested please let me know.
I have travelled on 8 previous cruises with RCCL and enjoyed every one
