27. Seek Out Purpose-Built Solo Traveler Studios

Solo travelers often face hefty "single supplement" fees, effectively doubling the per-person cost. To combat this, several modern cruise ships (especially on lines like Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, and some luxury lines) now feature dedicated studio cabins specifically designed and priced for one person. These compact but cleverly designed rooms eliminate the single supplement, making solo cruising far more affordable while often granting access to exclusive solo lounges for mingling.
