Chinese new year questions

[angelwingsflys]

Hi Everyone,

I am doing a cruise out of Singapore next month, finally found out why the accommodation in Singapore in so much dearer than other time of the year.

It's the Chinese New year ! Just a few questions.

Has anyone been in Singapore at this time of the year? What happens apart from the parades, is there anything that you could suggest as a not to miss activity, we are there for 3 nights prior to the cruise, will there be places closed due to the celebration for the Chinese new year ?:D

Cheers Deb.

Flights are usually full too. Check-in and get a nice seat early.
