How to Find Cheap Solo Cruises π³οΈ

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a guide for finding affordable cruises, specifically focusing on strategies for solo travelers. The video begins by defining essential cruising terms, such as total cost, which the creator includes as the fare, port fees, taxes, and gratuities. A significant portion of the discussion centers on why metrics like double occupancy and solo supplements are unreliable indicators of value. Instead, the creator advocates for using cost per day as the primary method for comparing different cruise options. The creator also warns against booking solo cabins, noting that they are often more expensive than standard inside cabins. To find deals, the creator recommends using the Cruise Plum search engine because it provides unbiased data and allows users to sort by cost per night. Additionally, the video covers various methods to reduce overall expenses, including using cashback websites like Rakuten, utilizing cruise line referral programs, and leveraging credit card reward points to cover travel costs like flights and hotels.

Creator's Key Takeaways
total cost of a cruise what does that include a lot of people say it only includes the cruise fair port fees taxes but for me the cruise fare is everything that you kind of have to pay
double occupancy and solo supplement the reason I'm putting them together is because sometimes they're used interchangeably they mean a little bit different thing but they're very similar
in my experience solo cabins are not a good deal they're usually actually more than the inside cabin on the same exact cruise
I don't want to go too much in the weeds there we'll do that in a moment but yeah this is the hot deals tab
