New solo traveler options
Singles are finally getting some attention as a significant segment of the traveling public. From new organizations that cater to singles to companies that provide a means to avoid the “single surcharge” for packaged vacations, solo travelers have more and more choices.

As travel companies look for new ways to expand business, they are increasingly courting solo travelers. Roughly one in 10 leisure travelers hit the road alone, according to the most recent data from the Travel Industry Association, and more travel companies, from specialty tour operators to individual resorts, are creating packages that cater to those customers.
