If you don’t have a travel companion, we’ll do our best to pair you with another participant looking for a roommate. However, sometimes there is no one else, or in rare circumstances that person may cancel. If that is the case, we will move you to a single room and the additional single room rate will be charged to you. For this reason, we recommend booking a shared room with a companion.
