Thanks, I appreciate the info. 

I am on the LA rt May 11-18. The rollcall for that sailing doesn't seem to have any meet and greet setup. 

sitraveler, do they have any pre-dinner gathering the first day?  When and where do I find the social hostess? 

Thanks for the advice

Several cruise lines, including NCL, offer solo cruisers a meetup event before dinner. That way the solo cruisers can connect to each other, and make arrangements to eat dinner together at a shared table. 

As a first time Oceania cruiser in May on Regatta, I am curious how Oceania handles it.  Any solo cruisers that can let me know what to expect?

Azamara claims that they have a 125% rate for single supplements on selected voyages, but it is not calculated on their advertised per person prices. Instead they use their own internal pricing as a base amount and then multiply it.

Since they usually deep discount their fares and advertise the actual cost, they can calculate this single 125% rate to actually be higher than the cost for a couple who will get the deep discount rate.

I have sailed with Azamara and enjoyed the cruise. But I wish that they would be more fair towards single travelers.
