Celebrity Solstice docks in Singapore

The 2,850-guest cruise arrived at Marina Bay Cruise Centre.

According to a release, cruise brand Celebrity Cruises is making its first visit to Singapore, with the maiden call of its Celebrity Solstice.

The 122,000-gross registered ton ship arrived at Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore in the morning after a 12-night cruise from Dubai, with over 2,700 international guests onboard. She is in Singapore for an overnight before heading to Australia.

An official ceremony was held onboard the ship to welcome her arrival, with plaque exchanges between Mr Melvin Vu, CEO of SATS-Creuers Cruise Services and Captain Ioannis Berdos of Celebrity Solstice. Ms Jennifer Yap, Managing Director, Singapore of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. said, “We are proud to have the beautiful, stunning Celebrity Solstice as the first of her brand to call at Singapore. The new cruise terminal here has made it possible to bring in a ship of her size in style for a better guest experience. This is also a great opportunity for us to showcase this renowned ship which offers attractive itineraries in Australia and Alaska next.”

The sleek, 2,850-guest Celebrity Solstice which was launched in 2008 as Celebrity’s first Solstice Class ship and has since won numerous industry accolades, features the industry’s first half-acre Lawn Club with real grass and Hot Glass Show with live glassblowing demonstrations, 10 varied restaurants such as Blu, luxurious spa and unique entertainment designed for the state-of-the-art theater.

Guests onboard will enjoy exquisite cuisine, unparalleled service of a guest-to-staff ratio of nearly 2 to 1, stylish accommodation, destination-rich itineraries and more. She has been alternating between Europe in summer and the Caribbean in winter.

From this December to next March, Celebrity Solstice will offer 11- to 18-night cruises out from Sydney, Perth and Auckland with stopovers at Cairns, Airlie Beach, Brisbane, Melbourne, Milford Sound, Christchurch, Hobart, Adelaide, Albany and more.

There are also multiple overnight stays in ports like Sydney and Bali. Thereafter she will be embarking on her first Alaskan season next summer, the first of her class to do so. Her arrival in Singapore will soon be followed by her sister ship Celebrity Millennium on December 8.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
