Brits embracing solo travel
Solo travel is gaining in popularity with many choosing to leave friends or family at home.
According to research commissioned by Norwegian Cruise Line, over one-third (37%) prefer to travel alone.
Three in ten (31%) have already booked a solo holiday for 2023.
The top reasons for solo travel are for a break (33%) or to treat themselves (30%).
Almost one in five (17%) booked a holiday to reconnect with themselves after a break-up.
Gary Anslow, Head of UK and Ireland Business at NCL, said, “We can see that enjoying the beauty of travel on your own enables a truly authentic experience.”
NCL launched the Studio concept in 2010, designed and priced exclusively for solo cruisers.
The Studio complex can be found on nine ships within the NCL fleet.
Norwegian Viva provides solo guests with 73 Studio cabins, all with exclusive access to the shared private area Studio Lounge.
Norwegian Viva will sail through the Mediterranean later this year.
