Question
Although I will be traveling with family members, I may be the only single traveler. I don't think that I would feel comfortable sharing a cabin with someone that I don't know. What's a girl to do?

Answer
Hi Leslie,

Check with your travel agent, most cruise lines don't offer a single share, where they put you in the room with another single. If you want to stay in a cabin alone most cruise lines will charge a single supplement which is usually 150% to 200% of the fare. The only other alternative would be to share the cabin with the family members that you're traveling with. Ships have cabins that will sleep 4, 6 or 8 people depending on the Category. Hope this helps.
