Petition Compel travel businesses to stop charging extra costs for single travellers.

In the UK companies in the travel and holiday industries levy unreasonable extra costs in the single independant traveller. The practice is to place unreasonable supplements while the provision often leads to substandard accommodation/facilities. This disallows fairness and equality.

More details

A single person, paid £2000 for a cruise. She discovered during the cruise that a couple with a premium balcony outer cabin paid the same costs. The single person was consigned to an inner cabin deep within the ship. A single person wished to travel with her family to Europe. A well known holiday company operated a restrictive punitive policy insisting that the single traveller paid the cost comparable to a couple ie double the costs prejudicing fairness and equality.
