Availability of Single Rooms

I don't really see a heading for input so I'm just going to put this out there in hopes someone at RS reads it:

I am very happy to pay the single supplement, even when it makes the cost of the trip pretty high.  I love having a room to myself and often need the quiet time it offers.  My issue/concern is that the availability of singles is so limited!  If I really want to go on a particular trip, I often have to sign up a year or more in advance to make sure a room is available.  Doubles seem to be available long after the singles sell out. Even if the supplement is increased a little to increase the availability of singles, I would be willing to pay it.  That seems like it would be possible to factor in.  Thanks RS for having such amazingly wonderful trips! I would like to do more of them!

    I love solo traveling because I like freedom. It's hard sometimes to find a single room. but it's possible. As you said, you have to sing up a year or more in advance. https://timescanner.pro/ - I use this service to know the exact time and determine my current time zone when traveling. Sometimes I lose track of time.
