What is the best cruise for an 80-year-old widower?

My father likes to travel but has no close companions or friends that he could travel with. He recently went on a Carnival Cruise to the Caribbean and said it was ok but he said it was really geared towards younger families. It was all about the nightclubs and the pool on the cruise and he was interested in neither really. Is there a cruise out there, maybe to Europe or even Alaska, where he’d feel more comfortable and meet more people closer to his age? We can’t afford to go with him right now and we have a young baby at home, or else we’d join him.

You should go to the web site for Holland America Cruise line. That cruise line typically has the oldest passengers and by that I mean passengers age 60 and older. There may be a few young people but not many. They also have programs geared for older travelers. On their web page there is a link that you can click on to get information about registering your father for the companion traveling program. The cruise line will match your father with another person (same sex) who is traveling alone to share a cabin . Holland America cruises all over the world and he can go to Alaska, Hawaii, the Mediterranean, Europe or even take a 60 day cruise half way around the world if he has the money for that.

Another option for a more mature cruise would be on Cunard but I am not sure of they have the passenger matching program.
