They do need a single person for the solo’s though. I found that just as the person was getting used to hosting us the next cruise they assigned a new host. They also do not get much time to spend with us and would often time spend their free time with us so that we could goto shows/dinner and be able to interact with our other solo’s. It started out VERY disorganized but Krysta picked it up again fairly quickly.  “-tgirl25
