SGL Supplement refers to an additional fee charged by STC or hotels when a single traveler occupies a room or accommodation intended for double occupancy.
The purpose of the single supplement is to cover the cost difference incurred by STC or hotel for having only one person occupying a room that is designed for two people. This fee is typically added on top of the regular per-person rate for the tour or accommodation.
The single supplement is often applied because many travel packages and hotel room rates are based on double occupancy, assuming that two people will be sharing the cost. When a single traveler chooses to occupy a room alone, the travel company or hotel seeks to recoup the potential revenue loss.
The single supplement amount can vary depending on the tour type, destination, type of accommodation, and the specific package or tour being booked. It’s important for Socotra travelers to inquire about the single supplement policy and any associated costs when booking their travel arrangements to avoid any surprises or misunderstandings.
We may offer options to help mitigate the single supplement, such as matching solo travelers with a roommate (if available) to share the room and split the cost, or offering specific departure dates or tours that cater to Socotratravels.com without imposing a single supplement fee.
It’s recommended to carefully review the terms and conditions, including the single supplement policy, to understand any additional costs involved and make an informed decision.
