Plus $250 Shipboard Credit available to single travellers on select sailings
Ultra-luxury Silversea Cruises has reduced the single supplement on more than 20 sailings in 2011 to just 10% - 25% (above the per-person, double-occupancy fare) for Vista, Veranda and Midship Veranda suites.
Initially launched last summer on select 2010 voyages, the line's specially reduced Solo Traveller fares proved such a popular incentive with independent travellers that the company is extending the offer to select 2011 itineraries.
"With special fares like these -- which can be combined with Silver Savings, Free Air and $250 Shipboard Credit offers -- there's no excuse for single travellers to stay at home," said Trudy Redfern, Managing Director of UK & Ireland. "If you travel on your own, now is the ideal time to finalise your holiday plans for next year and treat yourself to the luxuries of a Silversea voyage."
Silversea's crew-to-guest ratio of nearly one to one ensures single guests will enjoy highly personalised service, warm hospitality, and an ambiance that makes them feel right at home. Also, on several voyages, Gentlemen Hosts will be on board, which is a real benefit for single female guests looking for a dining companion or a dance partner.
All-inclusive fares include a spacious, ocean-view suite (most suites feature a private veranda), attentive butler service, complimentary wines and spirits, fine dining, sophisticated enrichment and entertainment programmes, and all onboard gratuities.

All fares listed above are per person based on single occupancy for a Vista Suite and include port charges and handling fees.

The Shipboard Credit is offered per suite, not per voyage, and only once to guests sailing on consecutive voyages. Shipboard Credit is valued in U.S. dollars, regardless of booking currency. It may not be redeemed for cash, and any unused portion will be forfeited. Additional restrictions may apply.
*FREE AIR: A free roundtrip economy air package, that includes transfers between airport and pier on the day of embarkation and disembarkation, is available from select gateway cities in the UK. It is a capacity-controlled programme offered for a limited time.
