Cruise Indonesia With Princess Cruises

In response to the growing interest in cruising in Southeast Asia, Carnival Corporation will be introducing the largest deployment by a premium cruise line in the region when it brings the Sapphire Princess to Singapore for a five-month fall 2014 to spring 2015 season.

The itineraries will combine the region’s major metropolises, such as Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City and Kuala Lumpur.

One unique itinerary of note is a 10-day Indonesia cruise that visits Jakarta, Bali, Komodo Island and Lombok. It will depart on Jan. 13, 2015.

“Princess Cruises will be the first premium cruise line to have ships based in Singapore for an extended period,” said Alan Buckelew, chief operations officer of Carnival in a statement issued to The Jakarta Post recently.

The 116,000-ton Sapphire Princess carries 2,670 passengers.

Approximately 40,000 passengers are expected to be carried during this first season of cruising from Singapore.

Passengers will be sourced from Singapore and throughout Asia, in addition to other international markets, including the US, the UK and Australia.

The 2014/2015 program features 15 cruises sailing round-trip from Singapore.

Cruises range from US$449 per person for a three-day trip, to $3,919 per person for a 21-day trip, based on double-sharing occupancy.

Princess Cruises was catapulted to stardom in 1977 when its ship, Pacific Princess, was cast in the starring role in the television show The Love Boat.

The weekly series, which introduced millions of viewers to the concept of a sea-going vacation, was an instant hit and both the company name and its “seawitch” logo have remained synonymous with cruising ever since. /(ren/nfo)
