When the cruise is canceled by the cruise line, you will generally be offered a full refund or the option to move your reservation to another date without penalty, often with a perk. All changes are subject to current terms and conditions at the time of cancellation. Your team at Singles Travel International will advocate for you in all cases.

You are responsible for airfare, airport transfers in Fort Lauderdale, shore excursions, casino gambling, shopping, and gratuities to your Singles Travel International Concierge ($15 per day recommended) and Celebrity Crew.
Cabin incidentals such as laundry, phone calls are at an additional cost and all items will appear on your final billing statement at the end of the cruise.
Of course not. You will be pleased to find out that nearly 90% of our guests on every cruise sign up and have never met anyone before joining the group. Since 1993, we have been perfecting the singles vacation experience. It is paramount that our guests meet each other right away and have opportunities to mingle every day.
From the moment you arrive at our pre Cruise hotel, our Singles Travel International Concierge is waiting to meet you at our Hospitality Desk or Welcome Event. Our first evening begins with a meet and greet and orientation. We plan daily activities both onboard the ship as well as in each port. We dine together each evening in an open seating arrangement so that you have a chance to meet as many people as possible.
Our program for 50+ singles also includes an invitation to a private WhatsApp Group Chat where you may start meeting your fellow travelers and make new friends immediately. In addition, we host a virtual Meet & Greet with your travel companions before you depart. You’ll receive automatic reminders via email and text for each event. Be sure you opt in for all communications so that you don’t miss out on anything!
Text YES to us at 833-479-1857 if you are not yet receiving our text message reminders.
Our affordable Premium Memberships allows solo travelers the ability to have Your Own Space™ for a lot less so that you never have to share. Review the special Premium Member Savings by clicking the ⓘ next to the “Add to Cart” button when searching your options on each trip page.

Roommate matches are available by request if you already have a traveling companion. Contact us at 877-SOLO-TRIP to speak with one of our teammates to make your reservation.
Our vacations cater to singles in their 50s, 60s and 70s but you will often meet singles ranging anywhere from 50-75. We generally have a ratio of 60/40, women to men. As a travel club, matchmaking is not our focus. We offer an opportunity for single travelers to see the world in the company of other singles and do not guarantee ratios or ages.
We recommend that you meet the members of the Singles Travel International Community on the private WhatsApp Group Chat once you receive the invite from the Get Ready email after you make your reservation. This is the best way to find out exactly who will be on your vacation and to start making new friends.
Knowing who’s on the trip in advance makes socializing before and during your vacation easier and more fun.

Let’s get started planning the fun that you’ll have on your cruise! Click here for a link to the Celebrity Cruises shore excursions for our journey. Log into your Celebrity account to reserve excursions for your cruise.
Your Singles Travel International Concierge will also offer Independent Meetups early morning in each port so that members without an excursion may connect and spend time exploring together.
Yes, there are hairdryers in each cabin. Electrical current is 110, which is the US standard. If sharing a cabin, we recommend bringing along a power strip so that you both may recharge phones, cameras and add additional items such as a curling iron.
All meals are served either buffet style in a restaurant located on an open deck such as the pool deck or full service in the main dining room at set times referred to as early and late (or first and second) seating. Singles Travel International hosts the Breakfast Club™ each morning in one of the 2 locations, which are determined via your Singles Travel International Concierge once onboard and advised to you each day via our weekly program.
We reserve early (first) seating for the entire group for dinner. Early (first) dining is generally served at 5:30 p.m. and varies by cruise line. If you desire to dine at late (second) seating, generally served at 8:00 p.m., please let our reservation specialist know at the time of booking. Note that on most cruises, the majority of our guests choose early (first) seating and by selecting late (second) seating, you may be dining with a smaller group of our guests or perhaps none at all. All dining requests are confirmed once onboard, not in advance and are at the discretion of the cruise line.
In addition, there are a la carte and themed restaurants with and without a fee. Singles Travel International reserves tables of 8 for several nights during the cruise. You may sign up for those options at the Welcome Meeting in Fort Lauderdale and, therefore, enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles once onboard the ship. We recommend that you purchase a 3 night dining package from Celebrity to get a better value than paying a la carte onboard.
In addition to included dinners in the complimentary Grand Cuvee Restaurant each evening, we’ll have several specialty dining opportunities and experiences onboard ship for an additional fee.
Step 1: Purchase a Classic Specialty Dining Package from your My Celebrity Cruise Portal for three meals (variable rates available when you log into your Celebrity account) and dine at three different specialty restaurants (e.g. Le Petit Chef, Murano, Tuscan Grille, Sushi on 5, Lawn Club Grill) during our cruise. Additional Packages: Other options may include packages for 4 or 5 meals, with prices ranging from $40 to $75 per person (subject to change at any time), plus gratuities. Specific surcharges may apply for certain restaurants and tasting menus.
Step 2: In Fort Lauderdale, sign up for specialty dinners reservations when checking in with your Singles Travel International Concierge at our Welcome Event in the pre cruise hotel. Signing up early ensures that you have the best chance to enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles, once onboard the ship. The actual date and time will be confirmed by your Concierge once onboard.
Note: Reservations are not associated with any payment. Once onboard, you will need to pay using your Specialty Dining Package or pay as you go according to the cruise line’s terms. Magic Carpet has its own set of reservation terms and may only be reserved once onboard, weather permitting.
Singles Travel International VIP reservations are generally between 5:00-7:00 p.m. Our Singles Travel International Weekly Program will present a Singles Only Dining & Show Schedule so that you are informed of our singles-only activities. On occasion, a given restaurant may be fully booked, and Singles Travel International does not guarantee reservations. Prices listed on our site are subject to change by the cruise line at any time.
The average daytime temperature for all the islands is 80-85 and evenings average 75-80 degrees. Expect high humidity.
A light jacket will be perfect for those evening dips in temperature due to onboard air conditioning or a late night walk on deck in a cool breeze.
There is no baggage limit onboard ship.
Currently, most airlines will allow you to check one bag weighing up to 50 pounds, for a fee. In addition, you may carry-on one bag plus a personal item such as a purse or briefcase. Please check with your air carrier for up-to-the-minute regulations and fees for checked baggage.
General Tips:
As always, for traveling, we recommend that you pack 3 main colors and accessories. Opt for bright, cheerful colors to blend in more easily with local fashion in the Caribbean and on a luxury cruise ship with exotic nights.
Evenings Aboard Silhouette:
Formal Night gets a modern luxury reboot. Say goodbye to Formal Night, and hello to Evening Chic. It’s your time to shine—your way. Get glamorous. Get chic. Be sophisticated. For up to two nights on every cruise, Evening Chic activities have been introduced, and Evening Chic attire has replaced Formal attire. While dressier than Smart Casual, Evening Chic is intended to be less dressy than Formal attire.
Smart Casual Nights (most nights):
-
- Men: Long pants (no shorts), collared shirts, and smart jeans are acceptable.
- Women: Dresses, skirts, stylish pants, or chic jeans with a nice top are appropriate.
- Restrictions: Avoid tank tops, flip-flops, and beachwear during dinner.
Evening Chic Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- Men: Cocktail attire such as dress shirts with slacks or designer jeans paired with a blazer. Ties are optional.
- Women: Cocktail dresses, elegant tops with skirts or dress pants. Formal gowns are also welcome but not required.
Evening Theme Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- All members are encouraged to embrace the fun and dress up for these special nights. Going all out not only creates fantastic photo opportunities but also allows you to unwind and express yourself in any way you choose!
- Our Singles Travel International Concierge will update members on the chat within 90 days prior to departure.
Note: T-shirts, swimsuits, robes, bare feet, tank tops, baseball caps and pool wear are not allowed in the main restaurant or specialty restaurant at any time. Shorts and flip-flops are not allowed in the evening hours. The dress code will be enforced at all restaurants. And guests are asked to follow the Smart Casual or Evening Chic dress code in the Celebrity Theater for all evening performances. The daily program, delivered to your stateroom and available at the Guest Relations Desk, will be your guide to the correct attire each evening.
Evenings aboard the ship are sometimes cool due to the air conditioning, so a coverup is essential if you tend to get cold easily.
Packing Tips: Take only what you need; don’t over pack. Save room for souvenirs and purchases. Pack flat and full to avoid wrinkling. Bring wardrobe basics; mix and match around one or two colors. Don’t pack anything valuable, fragile or perishable. Label your luggage with an outside tag, and place an identification card inside each suitcase.
Essential Items: We highly recommend that you bring the following items.
– A happy-go-lucky attitude
– A good, comfortable pair of broken-in walking shoes.
– A pair of shoes for restaurants (loafers, sandals, etc).
– Slacks, shorts and tops and keep dressing in layers in mind
– Collapsible umbrella (which can double as a sunshade parasol) and/or lightweight raingear.
– Ladies will want to bring a nicer warm wrap, and gentlemen a nicer jacket, for evening wear.
– Sunglasses, sun block, sun hat or visor.
– Toiletries: all your daily essentials.
– Prescription medications: sufficient supply for the entire trip plus legible written prescription in case of loss. Keep medications in their original, labeled container. Always pack your medications in your carry-on bag!
– Eyeglasses, contacts, contact lens solution. You may want to bring along a written prescription for your eyewear in case of loss.
– Over the counter medications: cold remedy, aspirin/pain reliever, antacid/stomach upset remedy, Band-Aids, money or other anti-bacterial medication.
– Travel alarm clock with illuminated face, especially for guests in an inside cabin.
– Travel journal/notepad and reading material.
– Small, basic sewing kit with a few extra buttons. Remember to pack scissors in your checked bag!
– Photography Equipment
– Power strip to charge more than one item at a time. Only 1 US outlet in your cabin.

Onboard the ship, your credit card will be accepted to settle your bill onboard the ship, as well as in major shops and restaurants ashore. All onboard purchases are billed with a guest check and added to your personal shipboard account. At the end of the cruise, you will receive a total bill, which can be paid with cash or charged to a credit card. If you are sharing with another guest, no worries. You will each receive a separate statement which may be reviewed at any time on your interactive TV in the cabin.
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and most debit cards are also widely accepted throughout the islands. Some credit card companies may charge small international transaction fees, so it’s best to check with your provider before leaving home.

Our comprehensive program includes Unlimited Classic Beverage package and Unlimited Wi-Fi unless you opt out for the $595 savings at time of booking.
You are responsible for airfare, airport transfers in Fort Lauderdale, shore excursions, casino gambling, shopping, and gratuities to your Singles Travel International Concierge ($15 per day recommended) and Celebrity Crew.
Cabin incidentals such as laundry, phone calls are at an additional cost and all items will appear on your final billing statement at the end of the cruise.
Of course not. You will be pleased to find out that nearly 90% of our guests on every cruise sign up and have never met anyone before joining the group. Since 1993, we have been perfecting the singles vacation experience. It is paramount that our guests meet each other right away and have opportunities to mingle every day.
From the moment you arrive at our pre Cruise hotel, our Singles Travel International Concierge is waiting to meet you at our Hospitality Desk or Welcome Event. Our first evening begins with a meet and greet and orientation. We plan daily activities both onboard the ship as well as in each port. We dine together each evening in an open seating arrangement so that you have a chance to meet as many people as possible.
Our program for 50+ singles also includes an invitation to a private WhatsApp Group Chat where you may start meeting your fellow travelers and make new friends immediately. In addition, we host a virtual Meet & Greet with your travel companions before you depart. You’ll receive automatic reminders via email and text for each event. Be sure you opt in for all communications so that you don’t miss out on anything!

Our vacations cater to singles in their 50s, 60s and 70s but you will often meet singles ranging anywhere from 50-75. We generally have a ratio of 60/40, women to men. As a travel club, matchmaking is not our focus. We offer an opportunity for single travelers to see the world in the company of other singles and do not guarantee ratios or ages.
We recommend that you meet the members of the Singles Travel International Community on the private WhatsApp Group Chat once you receive the invite from the Get Ready email after you make your reservation. This is the best way to find out exactly who will be on your vacation and to start making new friends.

This is your space to get to know one another and is not monitored by our team. If you have any questions regarding your cruise or the operations of the program, kindly email our Help Center service@singlestravelintl.com for the most prompt response.
We are here to help make this a life-changing experience for each and every member who has entrusted us with their precious vacation time!
Your Singles Travel International Concierge will also offer Independent Meetups early morning in each port so that members without an excursion may connect and spend time exploring together.
Yes, there are hairdryers in each cabin. Electrical current is 110, which is the US standard. If sharing a cabin, we recommend bringing along a power strip so that you both may recharge phones, cameras and add additional items such as a curling iron.
All meals are served either buffet style in a restaurant located on an open deck such as the pool deck or full service in the main dining room at set times referred to as early and late (or first and second) seating. Singles Travel International hosts the Breakfast Club™ each morning in one of the 2 locations, which are determined via your Singles Travel International Concierge once onboard and advised to you each day via our weekly program.
We reserve early (first) seating for the entire group for dinner. Early (first) dining is generally served at 5:30 p.m. and varies by cruise line. If you desire to dine at late (second) seating, generally served at 8:00 p.m., please let our reservation specialist know at the time of booking. Note that on most cruises, the majority of our guests choose early (first) seating and by selecting late (second) seating, you may be dining with a smaller group of our guests or perhaps none at all. All dining requests are confirmed once onboard, not in advance and are at the discretion of the cruise line.
In addition, there are a la carte and themed restaurants with and without a fee. Singles Travel International reserves tables of 8 for several nights during the cruise. You may sign up for those options at the Welcome Meeting in Fort Lauderdale and, therefore, enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles once onboard the ship. We recommend that you purchase a 3 night dining package from Celebrity to get a better value than paying a la carte onboard.
In addition to included dinners in the complimentary Grand Cuvee Restaurant each evening, we’ll have several specialty dining opportunities and experiences onboard ship for an additional fee.
Step 1: Purchase a Classic Specialty Dining Package from your My Celebrity Cruise Portal for three meals (variable rates available when you log into your Celebrity account) and dine at three different specialty restaurants (e.g. Le Petit Chef, Murano, Tuscan Grille, Sushi on 5, Lawn Club Grill) during our cruise. Additional Packages: Other options may include packages for 4 or 5 meals, with prices ranging from $40 to $75 per person (subject to change at any time), plus gratuities. Specific surcharges may apply for certain restaurants and tasting menus.
Step 2: In Fort Lauderdale, sign up for specialty dinners reservations when checking in with your Singles Travel International Concierge at our Welcome Event in the pre cruise hotel. Signing up early ensures that you have the best chance to enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles, once onboard the ship. The actual date and time will be confirmed by your Concierge once onboard.
Note: Reservations are not associated with any payment. Once onboard, you will need to pay using your Specialty Dining Package or pay as you go according to the cruise line’s terms. Magic Carpet has its own set of reservation terms and may only be reserved once onboard, weather permitting.
Singles Travel International VIP reservations are generally between 5:00-7:00 p.m. Our Singles Travel International Weekly Program will present a Singles Only Dining & Show Schedule so that you are informed of our singles-only activities. On occasion, a given restaurant may be fully booked, and Singles Travel International does not guarantee reservations. Prices listed on our site are subject to change by the cruise line at any time.
The average daytime temperature for all the islands is 80-85 and evenings average 75-80 degrees. Expect high humidity.
A light jacket will be perfect for those evening dips in temperature due to onboard air conditioning or a late night walk on deck in a cool breeze.
There is no baggage limit onboard ship.
Currently, most airlines will allow you to check one bag weighing up to 50 pounds, for a fee. In addition, you may carry-on one bag plus a personal item such as a purse or briefcase. Please check with your air carrier for up-to-the-minute regulations and fees for checked baggage.
General Tips:
As always, for traveling, we recommend that you pack 3 main colors and accessories. Opt for bright, cheerful colors to blend in more easily with local fashion in the Caribbean and on a luxury cruise ship with exotic nights.
Evenings Aboard Silhouette:
Formal Night gets a modern luxury reboot. Say goodbye to Formal Night, and hello to Evening Chic. It’s your time to shine—your way. Get glamorous. Get chic. Be sophisticated. For up to two nights on every cruise, Evening Chic activities have been introduced, and Evening Chic attire has replaced Formal attire. While dressier than Smart Casual, Evening Chic is intended to be less dressy than Formal attire.
Smart Casual Nights (most nights):
-
- Men: Long pants (no shorts), collared shirts, and smart jeans are acceptable.
- Women: Dresses, skirts, stylish pants, or chic jeans with a nice top are appropriate.
- Restrictions: Avoid tank tops, flip-flops, and beachwear during dinner.
Evening Chic Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- Men: Cocktail attire such as dress shirts with slacks or designer jeans paired with a blazer. Ties are optional.
- Women: Cocktail dresses, elegant tops with skirts or dress pants. Formal gowns are also welcome but not required.
Evening Theme Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- All members are encouraged to embrace the fun and dress up for these special nights. Going all out not only creates fantastic photo opportunities but also allows you to unwind and express yourself in any way you choose!
- Our Singles Travel International Concierge will update members on the chat within 90 days prior to departure.
Note: T-shirts, swimsuits, robes, bare feet, tank tops, baseball caps and pool wear are not allowed in the main restaurant or specialty restaurant at any time. Shorts and flip-flops are not allowed in the evening hours. The dress code will be enforced at all restaurants. And guests are asked to follow the Smart Casual or Evening Chic dress code in the Celebrity Theater for all evening performances. The daily program, delivered to your stateroom and available at the Guest Relations Desk, will be your guide to the correct attire each evening.
Evenings aboard the ship are sometimes cool due to the air conditioning, so a coverup is essential if you tend to get cold easily.
Packing Tips: Take only what you need; don’t over pack. Save room for souvenirs and purchases. Pack flat and full to avoid wrinkling. Bring wardrobe basics; mix and match around one or two colors. Don’t pack anything valuable, fragile or perishable. Label your luggage with an outside tag, and place an identification card inside each suitcase.
Essential Items: We highly recommend that you bring the following items.
– A happy-go-lucky attitude
– A good, comfortable pair of broken-in walking shoes.
– A pair of shoes for restaurants (loafers, sandals, etc).
– Slacks, shorts and tops and keep dressing in layers in mind
– Collapsible umbrella (which can double as a sunshade parasol) and/or lightweight raingear.
– Ladies will want to bring a nicer warm wrap, and gentlemen a nicer jacket, for evening wear.

All cancellations must be made in writing to Singles Travel International at service@singlestravelintl.com and are subject to per person penalties as follows:
In order to get the best value with Celebrity Cruises, we chose package rates that bear a $100 penalty imposed by Celebrity Cruises in the event of cancellation before final payment. Our members save over $1,000 on their solo cabin cruise cost with this option.
- After deposit and at any time of cancellation prior to October 14, 2026, your deposit amount of $1000 is non refundable, and will only incur the $100 fee imposed by Celebrity Cruises. The balance of your deposit will be issued as a Future Trip Credit that may be used toward any future Celebrity Cruises and Singles Travel International vacation within 1 year of cancellation, for travel at any time. No refund on any unused portions of the trip.
- After October 14, 2026, up to the day of cruising, any cancellations or “no-shows” – 100% penalty.
Air packages and air tickets are subject to cancellation policies imposed by the airlines.
When the cruise is canceled by the cruise line, you will generally be offered a full refund or the option to move your reservation to another date without penalty, often with a perk. All changes are subject to current terms and conditions at the time of cancellation. Your team at Singles Travel International will advocate for you in all cases.
Singles Travel International commits to keep members informed about the health and safety policies of our partner vendors. However, each traveler is ultimately responsible for their own health and well-being when deciding to travel. We strongly encourage all members to review the latest travel advisories from the US State Department, CDC, World Health Organization (WHO) and airlines to make informed decisions about travel safety.

You are responsible for airfare, airport transfers in Fort Lauderdale, shore excursions, casino gambling, shopping, and gratuities to your Singles Travel International Concierge ($15 per day recommended) and Celebrity Crew.

Of course not. You will be pleased to find out that nearly 90% of our guests on every cruise sign up and have never met anyone before joining the group. Since 1993, we have been perfecting the singles vacation experience. It is paramount that our guests meet each other right away and have opportunities to mingle every day.
From the moment you arrive at our pre Cruise hotel, our Singles Travel International Concierge is waiting to meet you at our Hospitality Desk or Welcome Event. Our first evening begins with a meet and greet and orientation. We plan daily activities both onboard the ship as well as in each port. We dine together each evening in an open seating arrangement so that you have a chance to meet as many people as possible.
Our program for 50+ singles also includes an invitation to a private WhatsApp Group Chat where you may start meeting your fellow travelers and make new friends immediately. In addition, we host a virtual Meet & Greet with your travel companions before you depart. You’ll receive automatic reminders via email and text for each event. Be sure you opt in for all communications so that you don’t miss out on anything!
Text YES to us at 833-479-1857 if you are not yet receiving our text message reminders.
Our affordable Premium Memberships allows solo travelers the ability to have Your Own Space™ for a lot less so that you never have to share.

Our vacations cater to singles in their 50s, 60s and 70s but you will often meet singles ranging anywhere from 50-75. We generally have a ratio of 60/40, women to men. As a travel club, matchmaking is not our focus. We offer an opportunity for single travelers to see the world in the company of other singles and do not guarantee ratios or ages.
We recommend that you meet the members of the Singles Travel International Community on the private WhatsApp Group Chat once you receive the invite from the Get Ready email after you make your reservation. This is the best way to find out exactly who will be on your vacation and to start making new friends.

This is your space to get to know one another and is not monitored by our team. If you have any questions regarding your cruise or the operations of the program, kindly email our Help Center service@singlestravelintl.com for the most prompt response.
We are here to help make this a life-changing experience for each and every member who has entrusted us with their precious vacation time!
Your Singles Travel International Concierge will also offer Independent Meetups early morning in each port so that members without an excursion may connect and spend time exploring together.
Yes, there are hairdryers in each cabin. Electrical current is 110, which is the US standard. If sharing a cabin, we recommend bringing along a power strip so that you both may recharge phones, cameras and add additional items such as a curling iron.
All meals are served either buffet style in a restaurant located on an open deck such as the pool deck or full service in the main dining room at set times referred to as early and late (or first and second) seating. Singles Travel International hosts the Breakfast Club™ each morning in one of the 2 locations, which are determined via your Singles Travel International Concierge once onboard and advised to you each day via our weekly program.
We reserve early (first) seating for the entire group for dinner. Early (first) dining is generally served at 5:30 p.m. and varies by cruise line. If you desire to dine at late (second) seating, generally served at 8:00 p.m., please let our reservation specialist know at the time of booking. Note that on most cruises, the majority of our guests choose early (first) seating and by selecting late (second) seating, you may be dining with a smaller group of our guests or perhaps none at all. All dining requests are confirmed once onboard, not in advance and are at the discretion of the cruise line.
In addition, there are a la carte and themed restaurants with and without a fee. Singles Travel International reserves tables of 8 for several nights during the cruise. You may sign up for those options at the Welcome Meeting in Fort Lauderdale and, therefore, enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles once onboard the ship. We recommend that you purchase a 3 night dining package from Celebrity to get a better value than paying a la carte onboard.
In addition to included dinners in the complimentary Grand Cuvee Restaurant each evening, we’ll have several specialty dining opportunities and experiences onboard ship for an additional fee.
Step 1: Purchase a Classic Specialty Dining Package from your My Celebrity Cruise Portal for three meals (variable rates available when you log into your Celebrity account) and dine at three different specialty restaurants (e.g. Le Petit Chef, Murano, Tuscan Grille, Sushi on 5, Lawn Club Grill) during our cruise. Additional Packages: Other options may include packages for 4 or 5 meals, with prices ranging from $40 to $75 per person (subject to change at any time), plus gratuities. Specific surcharges may apply for certain restaurants and tasting menus.
Step 2: In Fort Lauderdale, sign up for specialty dinners reservations when checking in with your Singles Travel International Concierge at our Welcome Event in the pre cruise hotel. Signing up early ensures that you have the best chance to enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles, once onboard the ship. The actual date and time will be confirmed by your Concierge once onboard.
Note: Reservations are not associated with any payment. Once onboard, you will need to pay using your Specialty Dining Package or pay as you go according to the cruise line’s terms. Magic Carpet has its own set of reservation terms and may only be reserved once onboard, weather permitting.
Singles Travel International VIP reservations are generally between 5:00-7:00 p.m. Our Singles Travel International Weekly Program will present a Singles Only Dining & Show Schedule so that you are informed of our singles-only activities. On occasion, a given restaurant may be fully booked, and Singles Travel International does not guarantee reservations. Prices listed on our site are subject to change by the cruise line at any time.
The average daytime temperature for all the islands is 80-85 and evenings average 75-80 degrees. Expect high humidity.
A light jacket will be perfect for those evening dips in temperature due to onboard air conditioning or a late night walk on deck in a cool breeze.
There is no baggage limit onboard ship.
Currently, most airlines will allow you to check one bag weighing up to 50 pounds, for a fee. In addition, you may carry-on one bag plus a personal item such as a purse or briefcase. Please check with your air carrier for up-to-the-minute regulations and fees for checked baggage.
General Tips:
As always, for traveling, we recommend that you pack 3 main colors and accessories. Opt for bright, cheerful colors to blend in more easily with local fashion in the Caribbean and on a luxury cruise ship with exotic nights.
Evenings Aboard Silhouette:
Formal Night gets a modern luxury reboot. Say goodbye to Formal Night, and hello to Evening Chic. It’s your time to shine—your way. Get glamorous. Get chic. Be sophisticated. For up to two nights on every cruise, Evening Chic activities have been introduced, and Evening Chic attire has replaced Formal attire. While dressier than Smart Casual, Evening Chic is intended to be less dressy than Formal attire.
Smart Casual Nights (most nights):
-
- Men: Long pants (no shorts), collared shirts, and smart jeans are acceptable.
- Women: Dresses, skirts, stylish pants, or chic jeans with a nice top are appropriate.
- Restrictions: Avoid tank tops, flip-flops, and beachwear during dinner.
Evening Chic Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- Men: Cocktail attire such as dress shirts with slacks or designer jeans paired with a blazer. Ties are optional.
- Women: Cocktail dresses, elegant tops with skirts or dress pants. Formal gowns are also welcome but not required.
Evening Theme Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- All members are encouraged to embrace the fun and dress up for these special nights. Going all out not only creates fantastic photo opportunities but also allows you to unwind and express yourself in any way you choose!
- Our Singles Travel International Concierge will update members on the chat within 90 days prior to departure.
Note: T-shirts, swimsuits, robes, bare feet, tank tops, baseball caps and pool wear are not allowed in the main restaurant or specialty restaurant at any time. Shorts and flip-flops are not allowed in the evening hours. The dress code will be enforced at all restaurants. And guests are asked to follow the Smart Casual or Evening Chic dress code in the Celebrity Theater for all evening performances. The daily program, delivered to your stateroom and available at the Guest Relations Desk, will be your guide to the correct attire each evening.
Evenings aboard the ship are sometimes cool due to the air conditioning, so a coverup is essential if you tend to get cold easily.

Don’t pack anything valuable, fragile or perishable. Label your luggage with an outside tag, and place an identification card inside each suitcase.
Essential Items: We highly recommend that you bring the following items.
– A happy-go-lucky attitude
– A good, comfortable pair of broken-in walking shoes.
– A pair of shoes for restaurants (loafers, sandals, etc).

You will each receive a separate statement which may be reviewed at any time on your interactive TV in the cabin.

Our vacations cater to singles in their 50s, 60s and 70s but you will often meet singles ranging anywhere from 50-75. We generally have a ratio of 60/40, women to men. As a travel club, matchmaking is not our focus. We offer an opportunity for single travelers to see the world in the company of other singles and do not guarantee ratios or ages.
We recommend that you meet the members of the Singles Travel International Community on the private WhatsApp Group Chat once you receive the invite from the Get Ready email after you make your reservation. This is the best way to find out exactly who will be on your vacation and to start making new friends.
Knowing who’s on the trip in advance makes socializing before and during your vacation easier and more fun.
Yes! Our program for 50+ singles also includes an invitation to a private WhatsApp Group Chat where you may start meeting your fellow travelers and make new friends immediately. In addition, we host a virtual Meet & Greet with your travel companions before you depart. You’ll receive automatic reminders via email and text for each event. Be sure you opt in for all communications so that you don’t miss out on anything!
Text YES to us at 833-479-1857 if you are not yet receiving our text message reminders.
Let’s get started planning the fun that you’ll have on your cruise! Click here for a link to the Celebrity Cruises shore excursions for our journey. Log into your Celebrity account to reserve excursions for your cruise.
There are lots of activities from which to choose. Enjoy looking over the options, and share your ideas with your fellow cruisers on the Private WhatsApp Group Chat for BOOKED members ONLY.
This is your space to get to know one another and is not monitored by our team. If you have any questions regarding your cruise or the operations of the program, kindly email our Help Center service@singlestravelintl.com for the most prompt response.
We are here to help make this a life-changing experience for each and every member who has entrusted us with their precious vacation time!
Your Singles Travel International Concierge will also offer Independent Meetups early morning in each port so that members without an excursion may connect and spend time exploring together.
Yes, there are hairdryers in each cabin. Electrical current is 110, which is the US standard. If sharing a cabin, we recommend bringing along a power strip so that you both may recharge phones, cameras and add additional items such as a curling iron.
All meals are served either buffet style in a restaurant located on an open deck such as the pool deck or full service in the main dining room at set times referred to as early and late (or first and second) seating. Singles Travel International hosts the Breakfast Club™ each morning in one of the 2 locations, which are determined via your Singles Travel International Concierge once onboard and advised to you each day via our weekly program.
We reserve early (first) seating for the entire group for dinner. Early (first) dining is generally served at 5:30 p.m. and varies by cruise line. If you desire to dine at late (second) seating, generally served at 8:00 p.m., please let our reservation specialist know at the time of booking. Note that on most cruises, the majority of our guests choose early (first) seating and by selecting late (second) seating, you may be dining with a smaller group of our guests or perhaps none at all. All dining requests are confirmed once onboard, not in advance and are at the discretion of the cruise line.
In addition, there are a la carte and themed restaurants with and without a fee. Singles Travel International reserves tables of 8 for several nights during the cruise. You may sign up for those options at the Welcome Meeting in Fort Lauderdale and, therefore, enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles once onboard the ship. We recommend that you purchase a 3 night dining package from Celebrity to get a better value than paying a la carte onboard.
In addition to included dinners in the complimentary Grand Cuvee Restaurant each evening, we’ll have several specialty dining opportunities and experiences onboard ship for an additional fee.
Step 1: Purchase a Classic Specialty Dining Package from your My Celebrity Cruise Portal for three meals (variable rates available when you log into your Celebrity account) and dine at three different specialty restaurants (e.g. Le Petit Chef, Murano, Tuscan Grille, Sushi on 5, Lawn Club Grill) during our cruise. Additional Packages: Other options may include packages for 4 or 5 meals, with prices ranging from $40 to $75 per person (subject to change at any time), plus gratuities. Specific surcharges may apply for certain restaurants and tasting menus.
Step 2: In Fort Lauderdale, sign up for specialty dinners reservations when checking in with your Singles Travel International Concierge at our Welcome Event in the pre cruise hotel. Signing up early ensures that you have the best chance to enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles, once onboard the ship. The actual date and time will be confirmed by your Concierge once onboard.
Note: Reservations are not associated with any payment. Once onboard, you will need to pay using your Specialty Dining Package or pay as you go according to the cruise line’s terms. Magic Carpet has its own set of reservation terms and may only be reserved once onboard, weather permitting.
Singles Travel International VIP reservations are generally between 5:00-7:00 p.m. Our Singles Travel International Weekly Program will present a Singles Only Dining & Show Schedule so that you are informed of our singles-only activities. On occasion, a given restaurant may be fully booked, and Singles Travel International does not guarantee reservations. Prices listed on our site are subject to change by the cruise line at any time.
The average daytime temperature for all the islands is 80-85 and evenings average 75-80 degrees. Expect high humidity.
A light jacket will be perfect for those evening dips in temperature due to onboard air conditioning or a late night walk on deck in a cool breeze.
There is no baggage limit onboard ship.
Currently, most airlines will allow you to check one bag weighing up to 50 pounds, for a fee. In addition, you may carry-on one bag plus a personal item such as a purse or briefcase. Please check with your air carrier for up-to-the-minute regulations and fees for checked baggage.
General Tips:
As always, for traveling, we recommend that you pack 3 main colors and accessories. Opt for bright, cheerful colors to blend in more easily with local fashion in the Caribbean and on a luxury cruise ship with exotic nights.
Evenings Aboard Silhouette:
Formal Night gets a modern luxury reboot. Say goodbye to Formal Night, and hello to Evening Chic. It’s your time to shine—your way. Get glamorous. Get chic. Be sophisticated. For up to two nights on every cruise, Evening Chic activities have been introduced, and Evening Chic attire has replaced Formal attire. While dressier than Smart Casual, Evening Chic is intended to be less dressy than Formal attire.
Smart Casual Nights (most nights):
-
- Men: Long pants (no shorts), collared shirts, and smart jeans are acceptable.
- Women: Dresses, skirts, stylish pants, or chic jeans with a nice top are appropriate.
- Restrictions: Avoid tank tops, flip-flops, and beachwear during dinner.
Evening Chic Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- Men: Cocktail attire such as dress shirts with slacks or designer jeans paired with a blazer. Ties are optional.
- Women: Cocktail dresses, elegant tops with skirts or dress pants. Formal gowns are also welcome but not required.
Evening Theme Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- All members are encouraged to embrace the fun and dress up for these special nights. Going all out not only creates fantastic photo opportunities but also allows you to unwind and express yourself in any way you choose!
- Our Singles Travel International Concierge will update members on the chat within 90 days prior to departure.
Note: T-shirts, swimsuits, robes, bare feet, tank tops, baseball caps and pool wear are not allowed in the main restaurant or specialty restaurant at any time. Shorts and flip-flops are not allowed in the evening hours. The dress code will be enforced at all restaurants. And guests are asked to follow the Smart Casual or Evening Chic dress code in the Celebrity Theater for all evening performances. The daily program, delivered to your stateroom and available at the Guest Relations Desk, will be your guide to the correct attire each evening.
Evenings aboard the ship are sometimes cool due to the air conditioning, so a coverup is essential if you tend to get cold easily.
Packing Tips: Take only what you need; don’t over pack. Save room for souvenirs and purchases. Pack flat and full to avoid wrinkling. Bring wardrobe basics; mix and match around one or two colors. Don’t pack anything valuable, fragile or perishable. Label your luggage with an outside tag, and place an identification card inside each suitcase.
Essential Items: We highly recommend that you bring the following items.
– A happy-go-lucky attitude
– A good, comfortable pair of broken-in walking shoes.
– A pair of shoes for restaurants (loafers, sandals, etc).
– Slacks, shorts and tops and keep dressing in layers in mind
– Collapsible umbrella (which can double as a sunshade parasol) and/or lightweight raingear.
– Ladies will want to bring a nicer warm wrap, and gentlemen a nicer jacket, for evening wear.
– Sunglasses, sun block, sun hat or visor.
– Toiletries: all your daily essentials.
– Prescription medications: sufficient supply for the entire trip plus legible written prescription in case of loss. Keep medications in their original, labeled container. Always pack your medications in your carry-on bag!
– Eyeglasses, contacts, contact lens solution. You may want to bring along a written prescription for your eyewear in case of loss.
– Over the counter medications: cold remedy, aspirin/pain reliever, antacid/stomach upset remedy, Band-Aids, money or other anti-bacterial medication.
– Travel alarm clock with illuminated face, especially for guests in an inside cabin.
– Travel journal/notepad and reading material.
– Small, basic sewing kit with a few extra buttons. Remember to pack scissors in your checked bag!
– Photography Equipment
– Power strip to charge more than one item at a time. Only 1 US outlet in your cabin.

All onboard purchases are billed with a guest check and added to your personal shipboard account. At the end of the cruise, you will receive a total bill, which can be paid with cash or charged to a credit card. If you are sharing with another guest, no worries. You will each receive a separate statement which may be reviewed at any time on your interactive TV in the cabin.
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and most debit cards are also widely accepted throughout the islands. Some credit card companies may charge small international transaction fees, so it’s best to check with your provider before leaving home.

On return to the U.S., your baggage is subject to search by U.S. Customs. Currently, you are permitted to bring back $800 of goods duty free. Persons aged 21 or over may also bring in one liter of liquor and one carton of cigarettes. If you plan to purchase a lot of souvenirs or expensive items, it is important to retain all purchase receipts. However, please note that U.S. Customs may not accept a receipt as true cost if it seems unusually low for the estimated value of the item.

Since 1993, we have been perfecting the singles vacation experience. It is paramount that our guests meet each other right away and have opportunities to mingle every day.

Your Singles Travel International Concierge will also offer Independent Meetups early morning in each port so that members without an excursion may connect and spend time exploring together.
Yes, there are hairdryers in each cabin. Electrical current is 110, which is the US standard. If sharing a cabin, we recommend bringing along a power strip so that you both may recharge phones, cameras and add additional items such as a curling iron.
All meals are served either buffet style in a restaurant located on an open deck such as the pool deck or full service in the main dining room at set times referred to as early and late (or first and second) seating. Singles Travel International hosts the Breakfast Club™ each morning in one of the 2 locations, which are determined via your Singles Travel International Concierge once onboard and advised to you each day via our weekly program.
We reserve early (first) seating for the entire group for dinner. Early (first) dining is generally served at 5:30 p.m. and varies by cruise line. If you desire to dine at late (second) seating, generally served at 8:00 p.m., please let our reservation specialist know at the time of booking. Note that on most cruises, the majority of our guests choose early (first) seating and by selecting late (second) seating, you may be dining with a smaller group of our guests or perhaps none at all. All dining requests are confirmed once onboard, not in advance and are at the discretion of the cruise line.
In addition, there are a la carte and themed restaurants with and without a fee. Singles Travel International reserves tables of 8 for several nights during the cruise. You may sign up for those options at the Welcome Meeting in Fort Lauderdale and, therefore, enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles once onboard the ship. We recommend that you purchase a 3 night dining package from Celebrity to get a better value than paying a la carte onboard.
In addition to included dinners in the complimentary Grand Cuvee Restaurant each evening, we’ll have several specialty dining opportunities and experiences onboard ship for an additional fee.
Step 1: Purchase a Classic Specialty Dining Package from your My Celebrity Cruise Portal for three meals (variable rates available when you log into your Celebrity account) and dine at three different specialty restaurants (e.g. Le Petit Chef, Murano, Tuscan Grille, Sushi on 5, Lawn Club Grill) during our cruise. Additional Packages: Other options may include packages for 4 or 5 meals, with prices ranging from $40 to $75 per person (subject to change at any time), plus gratuities. Specific surcharges may apply for certain restaurants and tasting menus.
Step 2: In Fort Lauderdale, sign up for specialty dinners reservations when checking in with your Singles Travel International Concierge at our Welcome Event in the pre cruise hotel. Signing up early ensures that you have the best chance to enjoy these restaurants in the company of other singles, once onboard the ship. The actual date and time will be confirmed by your Concierge once onboard.
Note: Reservations are not associated with any payment. Once onboard, you will need to pay using your Specialty Dining Package or pay as you go according to the cruise line’s terms. Magic Carpet has its own set of reservation terms and may only be reserved once onboard, weather permitting.
Singles Travel International VIP reservations are generally between 5:00-7:00 p.m. Our Singles Travel International Weekly Program will present a Singles Only Dining & Show Schedule so that you are informed of our singles-only activities. On occasion, a given restaurant may be fully booked, and Singles Travel International does not guarantee reservations. Prices listed on our site are subject to change by the cruise line at any time.
The average daytime temperature for all the islands is 80-85 and evenings average 75-80 degrees. Expect high humidity.
A light jacket will be perfect for those evening dips in temperature due to onboard air conditioning or a late night walk on deck in a cool breeze.
There is no baggage limit onboard ship.
Currently, most airlines will allow you to check one bag weighing up to 50 pounds, for a fee. In addition, you may carry-on one bag plus a personal item such as a purse or briefcase. Please check with your air carrier for up-to-the-minute regulations and fees for checked baggage.
General Tips:
As always, for traveling, we recommend that you pack 3 main colors and accessories. Opt for bright, cheerful colors to blend in more easily with local fashion in the Caribbean and on a luxury cruise ship with exotic nights.
Evenings Aboard Silhouette:
Formal Night gets a modern luxury reboot. Say goodbye to Formal Night, and hello to Evening Chic. It’s your time to shine—your way. Get glamorous. Get chic. Be sophisticated. For up to two nights on every cruise, Evening Chic activities have been introduced, and Evening Chic attire has replaced Formal attire. While dressier than Smart Casual, Evening Chic is intended to be less dressy than Formal attire.
Smart Casual Nights (most nights):
-
- Men: Long pants (no shorts), collared shirts, and smart jeans are acceptable.
- Women: Dresses, skirts, stylish pants, or chic jeans with a nice top are appropriate.
- Restrictions: Avoid tank tops, flip-flops, and beachwear during dinner.
Evening Chic Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- Men: Cocktail attire such as dress shirts with slacks or designer jeans paired with a blazer. Ties are optional.
- Women: Cocktail dresses, elegant tops with skirts or dress pants. Formal gowns are also welcome but not required.
Evening Theme Nights (two nights on a 9‑night cruise):
-
- All members are encouraged to embrace the fun and dress up for these special nights. Going all out not only creates fantastic photo opportunities but also allows you to unwind and express yourself in any way you choose!
- Our Singles Travel International Concierge will update members on the chat within 90 days prior to departure.
Note: T-shirts, swimsuits, robes, bare feet, tank tops, baseball caps and pool wear are not allowed in the main restaurant or specialty restaurant at any time. Shorts and flip-flops are not allowed in the evening hours. The dress code will be enforced at all restaurants. And guests are asked to follow the Smart Casual or Evening Chic dress code in the Celebrity Theater for all evening performances. The daily program, delivered to your stateroom and available at the Guest Relations Desk, will be your guide to the correct attire each evening.
Evenings aboard the ship are sometimes cool due to the air conditioning, so a coverup is essential if you tend to get cold easily.
Packing Tips: Take only what you need; don’t over pack. Save room for souvenirs and purchases. Pack flat and full to avoid wrinkling. Bring wardrobe basics; mix and match around one or two colors. Don’t pack anything valuable, fragile or perishable. Label your luggage with an outside tag, and place an identification card inside each suitcase.
Essential Items: We highly recommend that you bring the following items.
– A happy-go-lucky attitude
– A good, comfortable pair of broken-in walking shoes.
– A pair of shoes for restaurants (loafers, sandals, etc).
– Slacks, shorts and tops and keep dressing in layers in mind

All countries you will visit have laws against the purchase and export of certain items, including antiquities, national cultural property and certain animal products, especially endangered species (ivory, rhino horn, tortoise shell, coral, feathers, etc.). Additionally, the United States has laws prohibiting the import of certain items, which include many of the same things. You face having your purchase confiscated and/or heavy fines for exporting or importing prohibited items.
On return to the U.S., your baggage is subject to search by U.S. Customs. Currently, you are permitted to bring back $800 of goods duty free. Persons aged 21 or over may also bring in one liter of liquor and one carton of cigarettes. If you plan to purchase a lot of souvenirs or expensive items, it is important to retain all purchase receipts. However, please note that U.S. Customs may not accept a receipt as true cost if it seems unusually low for the estimated value of the item. You may access the regulations and restrictions governing US Customs on their official website, click here to learn more.
