Celebrity
Celebrity Cruises ships have staterooms built for a single cruiser and special events for solo travelers. It has also won solo traveling awards in the past.
Elizabeth Wright wrote about meeting friends at a Celebrity Cruise LGBTQIA+ mixer, while a Reddit user commended the line for its solo-friendly eating arrangements.
Holland America
Holland America has a handful of single staterooms for its solo traveling cruisers and is known for hosting events to help folks meet other solos aboard the ship.
Some solo traveler Reddit users appreciate that Holland ships have a quieter nature instead of a party aesthetic. Also, Holland is one of the cruise lines with the best food.
Norwegian
Norwegian Cruise Line was the first to build staterooms for singles. The company does not have a single supplement fee and hosts events for solo cruisers like pub crawls.
One Redditor stated, "Usually, NCL has an assigned solo traveler concierge service where they have daily sign ups for people who want to see a show together or dinner together."
