“Recovery of the cruise industry is in full swing, and we’re thrilled to be titled the favourite cruise line at this year’s 2022 KL MATTA Fair,” said Royal Caribbean International Regional Director of Sales (AsiaPacific) Kenneth Yeo.
“We have received more than 10,000 bookings since SingaporeMalaysia borders reopened earlier this year as cruises continue to be great value for money with incredible dining, Broadway-style theatre performances and world-class attractions all included in one ticket fare.
“With longer itineraries onboard Spectrum of the Seas covering even more destinations around Asia, the ROI on our guests’ vacation dollar has only gone up and we’re excited to bring more Malaysians on adventures around the region,” he said.
Vacationers have the option to choose between short, fuss-free getaways with three- and fournight itineraries, and longer-haul cruises comprising a mix of five-, seven-, nine- and 12-night itineraries to thoroughly experience the best of Asia’s natural wonders.
The upcoming deployment features two exclusive 12-night itineraries which allow guests to visit up to seven destinations across three countries all within one sailing.
This can also be done back-toback, which would cover 10 unique destinations across 24 spectacular nights at sea.
From many renowned sprawling cities to secret valleys, Asia is packed to the brim with rich cultures and natural beauty.
Holidaymakers can embark on off-the-grid exploration on their own or choose from a line-up of shore excursions that range from exploring sacred landmarks, such as the 19th-century Long Son Pagoda in Nha Trang, to marvelling at the majesty of Mount Fuji.
