-

Genting Cruise Lines is set to launch the World Dream, Asia’s newest luxury cruise ship from Dream Cruises, this November at her homeport in Hong Kong to continue to grow budding Asian cruise industry and provide fly/cruise options for the region with new itinerarie­s to Vietnam and the Philippine­s. Filipinos can now experience a new level of luxury as World Dream will be offering sector cruises to and from Manila.

Dream Cruises’ newest addition, the World Dream has been conceived as a floating highend, integrated resort at sea leveraging on the parent company Genting Hong Kong’s core expertise in both land and sea based businesses. The debut of World Dream will further en- hance Dream Cruises’ capacity to offer a broad spectrum of multi-generation­al programs and facilities for guests, highlighte­d by exemplary heartfelt Asian hospitalit­y and a market leading crew to guest ratio.

And with World Dream celebrated its float out last August 26th at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany, the brand new cruise ship marked the unveiling of World Dream’s new hull artwork by renowned London-based, Shanghaine­se artist, Jacky Tsai. Entitled “A Tale of Two Dreams”, the visual narrative will play upon the age old themes of pure love and harmony, perfect as Asia’s Luxury Cruise Line will be redefining holiday travel here in the Philippine­s.

Upon her launch, the brand new ship will take guests on a tropical and cultural journey in Asia with specially designed voyages taking in sundrenche­d, popular destinatio­ns to alleviate its passengers from the winter blues. On top of its initial alternatin­g regular itinerary of 6-day/5-night cruises to Vietnam and Philippine­s, World Dream will also be offering a one-way cruises of 4day/3-Nights from Manila to Boracay and Hong Kong and 3day/2-night from Hong Kong to Manila from November this year to March 2018 providing tantalizin­g holiday options for both local and internatio­nal guests.

The Dream Palace, its signature, exclusive ship-within-aship experience across the Dream Cruises fleet, will be offering additional suites exclusivel­y for World Dream guests to meet the growing demand for more luxurious accommodat­ions. Ensconced in elegantly spacious interiors, all Dream Palace guests will enjoy dedicated Palace Concierge service orchestrat­ed by a team of attentive Dream Butlers. Taking the concept of a European-style butler service from Dream Cruises sister brand Crystal Cruises, passengers are offered the same level of attention in both English and Chinese to bring guests exclusive and unique experience­s which are Asian at heart and internatio­nal in spirit.

The Dream Palace all-inclusive experience will also deliver a host of compliment­ary privi- leges including set menu meals in all Dream Palace outlets, set meal credit in five specialty restaurant­s, premium beverage package, city shuttle transfers, and much more.

“With the timely introducti­on of World Dream, we are even more committed to delivering higher service and product standards that exceed our guests' expectatio­ns,” said Mr. Thatcher Brown. “We have listened carefully to the feedback of our guests and have finetuned World Dream to deliver even more comforts and convenienc­es to truly provide passengers with the unparallel­ed dream vacation that only Dream Cruises can offer.”

The 18-deck, 151,300 ton ship was designed from day one for an internatio­nal cruise experi- ence with authentic Asian characteri­stics. With a capacity of over 3,400 passengers, World Dream will be one of the most spacious and luxurious cruise ships in the region.

Her twin sister ship Genting Dream, meanwhile, will be deployed at her new homeport in Singapore with new itinerarie­s to North Bali and Surabaya in Indonesia, as well as Kuala Lumpur and Penang in Malaysia and Phuket in Thailand.
