No formal night, though if you are sailing on the 17th I can arrange a Black Tie drinks if you like (I will be working) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a wonderful, beautiful place, and I was so happy to spend a few days there. I do have a cruise on the Ovation leaving there next April, and I’m so hoping it happens. Singapore is someplace I hope to visit again. I hope you get back here as well. Lots to do for such a small place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the previous Cruise review stated they were only available on paper by request. They were available on the TV in the cabin. Paper bad for spread of COVID19.

And each time I checked the chart on the TV saw that we were still in the same spot with not route marked out... A shame, would have liked a copy of the chart. Will ask for it on my next cruise, doing it again next month 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the kind of test of the lines need to have , unfortunately, to see if their processes are going to work, or are there procedures that need to change. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few concerns around bottlenecks in the passageways outside some of the cabins, but other than that the disembarkation was well managed. The poor guy who apparently had Covid has now been confirmed as Covid free, he was just unwell and the test provided a false positive. Better to be safe than sorry! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
