Cruise prices are typically based on double occupancy, which means the listed fare is calculated assuming two people are sharing a cabin. If you choose to travel solo, you’ll still be responsible for the full cost of the cabin — essentially paying for two people — because the cruise line is charging for the space, not the number of guests.
To get the best value, it's ideal to travel with a companion, since the cost of the cabin can be split between two people, making it significantly more affordable per person.
