Take a rtPCR SARS-CoV-2 test (between 24 hours and 3 days before your cruise). 2. Collected a physical contact tracing (TraceTogether) token or download the contact tracing application onto your phone. 3. Always wear the Tracelet Wristband during your cruise 4. Stick to assigned check-in times and wellness screening times.

"As for whether more ships will be added to the sailing roster, we'd like to start safe and slow - but as Royal Caribbean has the most ships in the world, there's always an opportunity." Interesting article and interesting choice of words. Is RCL hinting at the consideration of the deployment of a second ship to Singapore? It would be an easy logistical change with 3 or 4 ships anchored in the OPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on how longer Singapore restricts travel there may also be demand for these types of sailings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the slow opening of air travel bubbles, i think a lot of people won't travel when it first opens up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ethanol95 Posted January 28, 2021 Author #81 Share Posted January 28, 2021 MBCCS port schedule shows an interesting 2-week break of cruising from 12/04/2021 to 26/04/2021, also what looks to be a 1 night cruise/or some other non-revenue relocation for a night. Interesting. Could this 2 week be a drydock/routine maintenance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see any stops soon. Malaysia is battling an outbreak right now unfortunately. Now Bintan or Batam are two small Indonesian islands that could work if a travel bubble could be worked out. I was supposed to be on Voyager last summer so if it does start here. I’d go on another cruise to nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now Japan is closed until end of March but with the current outbreak I don’t see these happening but this could be part of that gap. Or maybe like you said time for some maintenance.

Japan leg is probably cancelled as well. If the dates on Singapore's port schedule are a more revised reflection of their plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. I’ve noticed the suites seem to sell fast on these sailing. I’m not sure if it’s because they only use half of them or are really popular as most folks haven’t been able to travel (without a 2 week hotel quarantine in most cases plus 3 swab tests) in almost a year. My fingers are crossed for a Royal Upgrade on on our March, 3 night sailing. Last cruise was during the holidays and was at sold out (50% full per regulations).

masteradept Posted February 17, 2021 #100 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Can confirm that Star Class is available (sailed on the 28th in a GLS and got the full benefits), and on that sailing all of the Star suites were occupied, as were the SLS in our area. Does look like the suites are really popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
