Star Cruises rings the changes
SINGAPORE – Star Cruises has released its winter season itinerary.
SuperStar Virgo, the largest cruise ship in Asia which currently homeports in Hong Kong, will return to Singapore and offer Straits of Malacca and Andaman Sea cruises from October 24, 2008, onwards.
The two-night Redang cruise will be re-launched from April to September next year.
SuperStar Aquarius will leave Singapore for Hong Kong on October 24 to start her winter cruise season comprising of four-night Hainan Island / Vietnam cruises and one-night getaway cruise in South China Sea.
Apart from the four-night Sanya / Halong Bay cruises, the ship will also call at Danang, the fourth largest city in Vietnam.
SuperStar Libra, offering Taiwan and Japan cruises in the current summer season, will also see her first deployment to Port Klang and Singapore from November 8.
Cruisers can embark and disembark in Port Klang for the three-night Penang and Singapore or Langkawi and Singapore or four-night Phuket and Singapore cruises.
William Ng, executive director of Star Cruises said, “The different phases of fleet redeployment enable our guests to enjoy a greater variety of cruising experience.â€
He said the 7.1 percent growth in group’s revenue for the first half year of 2008 had, in part, been generated by incentive group business.
In June this year, more than 2,000 Indian visitors, including a group of 1,000 yogis, and an incentive group of more than 1,000 top achievers, joined a SuperStar Virgo cruise from Hong Kong.
“We are also expecting another group of 4,000 from Beijing for a three-night cruise on SuperStar Virgo in October which will be the largest incentive group we have ever received,†said Ng.
