I checked into the fares which are reasonable enough if there are two people planning on sharing a cabin. Celebrity does nothing for single travelers. The single supplement is 200 per cent. So, the $1,500+ cruise becomes over $3,000. That's a bit much for many of us. It appears that Food Network encourages only couples. I would bet that there are many singles out there who watch Food Network programming regularly ( I can't be the only one) who don't have someone with whom to travel. Whether we're young professionals or retirees whose avocation is cooking, we're left on the sidelines. Maybe you need to rethink your choice of cruise lines.
