For people who love cruising

Find Your People.
Cruise Your Way.

Meet like-minded cruisers before you sail — whether you're looking for new friends, a dinner companion, an excursion buddy or someone to share a cabin with.

Connect when you want to. Enjoy your own space when you don't. You're always in control.

More choice, more connections

More Ways to Enjoy Your Cruise

Solo cruising gives you the freedom to travel your way. Cruise Companions Club adds another option — the chance to connect with like-minded cruisers before you sail.

Meet for dinner. Explore a port together. Enjoy onboard activities. Find someone interested in the same cruise. Or, if it suits you both, consider sharing a cabin and the cost.

How much or how little you do together is entirely up to you.

Meet Before You Sail

Make connections before embarkation, so you can arrive already knowing people with similar interests or plans.

Find People Who Cruise Like You

Search by cruise plans, interests and travel preferences to discover members you may enjoy connecting with.

Choose the Company You Want

Dinner companions, excursion buddies, activity partners, new friends or potential cabin mates — you decide what you're looking for.

Stay Independent

Connecting doesn't mean spending every moment together. Your cruise remains your cruise, with the freedom to enjoy company and your own time.

Find Your Community

Join conversations and groups for different interests, backgrounds and stages of life, and meet cruisers who share more than just a destination.

Plan With Confidence

Explore cruise tips, destination information and guidance to help you choose and enjoy your next voyage.

Whatever brought you here, you shouldn't have to miss an incredible cruise simply because you don't have someone to go with.

Who is Cruise Companions Club for?

Made for Solo Cruisers. Open to the Wider Cruise Community.

At its heart, Cruise Companions Club is for people who love cruising but don't always have someone who wants to take the same cruise, at the same time.

Your own cabin, with company when you choose

Meet cruisers for dinners, shows, activities, shore excursions or simply a friendly catch-up onboard — while keeping the freedom and privacy of your own stateroom.

Interested in sharing a cabin?

Connect with other cruisers who are also open to sharing a stateroom, which may help reduce the cost of cruising solo. Who you travel with is always your decision.

There's room for everyone

Couples, friends, families and other social cruisers are welcome too. CCC brings together people from different backgrounds and stages of life, united by one thing — a love of cruising and meeting good people along the way.

Why we created Cruise Companions Club

Cruise Companions Club began with a problem we'd both seen firsthand.

Steve had been travelling solo for more than 10 years and had taken more than 30 cruises, including world cruises. Along the way, he met countless people who loved cruising but didn't always have someone to travel with.

I had heard the same thing throughout my years working in travel:

"I'd love to go on that cruise — but I don't have anyone to go with."

Sometimes a partner didn't enjoy cruising. Sometimes friends weren't available. Sometimes life circumstances had changed. And too often, an incredible cruise simply didn't happen.

Fittingly, Steve and I met while we were both travelling solo on an Azamara cruise.

That shared experience, Steve's years of solo cruising and my background in travel became the starting point for Cruise Companions Club.

We wanted to create the kind of community we'd seen people looking for — somewhere cruise lovers could meet others who understand their love of cruising and form genuine connections.

That might mean finding someone to meet for dinner onboard, a shore excursion companion, a friend on the same sailing, or someone you get to know well enough to plan a future cruise with.

You can arrive solo. You don't have to cruise alone.
