"MyOwnCabin".com - Anyone Book With This Place??

Hi
Has anyone booked with the organization that puts out the "My Own Cabin" newsletter? The rates are quite good for solo travellers and I would like to hear any feedback that anyone might have concerning booking a cruise through them.
Thanks in advance!

I am familiar with them. They have excellent rates for solo travelers. I received an e-mail from them for a RCCL southern caribbean cruise. However, I called my travel agent and was able to book a balcony cabin using the rate I got from My Own Cabin.

I had a subscription with them but when I asked 2 questions regarding the 50% supplements on most of the cruises they cancelled my membership. They say they advertise little or no supplement and when i said 50% is not little or none they got pissed so i am banned. But HAL and Princess had some swet deals recently for single, also Celebrity did and I booked with them in CC class.

Hi Dack,

I've booked NCL Wind, 11 days for under $1,000. Departing Honolulu and visiting all the major islands plus Fanning, Island, Kiribati. It was really a great deal that I couldn't pass up. I'll let you know how it went when I return.

Good Cruisin'

Their specials you can receive from any travel agent.

Gigi - How do you find out about the singles deals? Are you on mailing lists? Do just check the Websites frequently?

singlesrecruisesource is the site that lists weekly specials and hot deals.

Is that the correct name - i tried looking it up and it said site not found??

Try this:

Hi Dack,

Just completed the Hawaii cruise booked with YourOwnCabin.

I had a single inside cabin, the smallest I've seen for guests (with a single bed). It would probably be fantastic for crew members.

I spoke nicely to the Front Office manager, who was also surprised at the size of the cabin. The next day I was upgraded to an outside cabin with portholes. (and queen bed).

This was my first with that company and if I use them again I will check available cabins before booking. Hope this helps.

Have a super day.

Aloha,
CB

After a few attempts, I was able to locate the single cruise resource web site, which is provided below. I subscribed to YourOwnCabin for several months before they stopped their newsletters. I got a good rate with them for a balcony cabin on Celebrity Summit, 11 nights, 25 Oct 04. I received my cruise documents last week. Solo cruisers have to really search to find a reasonable rate.

I thought they went "bellyup" ?
I booked two cruises with them>> The contact agent was Vicki Lantz,she was great,always returned calls & emails.
So am I to understand they've stopped the weekly newsletter ? They did have a one time $75.00 charge for each cruise.
I'll check out the other sites.
Thanks

Oops. I just noticed that the web site info has been replaced with "***edited . . . ."
Did not intend to break board rules. I will share the info if you e-mail me.

I booked a cruise with them last March. Very happy with service offered by Vicki Lantz. Was getting weekly e-mail offerings up till a few weeks ago. Now they seem to have vanished.
