I actually never been on a cruise. If it is for only $50, I want to try for an experience.
You will need a long line.Maybe I go Decathlon buy a fishing rod and some fishing equipment to bring along.
Try carrribean. Got show n buffet plus lots of ceca bu.I actually never been on a cruise. If it is for only $50, I want to try for an experience.
Star cruise and this kind of cruise are totally different.I actually never been on a cruise. If it is for only $50, I want to try for an experience.
The ship is anchored in international waters off Batam.Need to bring and surrender passport.
Only when the ship reaches international water then can phua.
According to Ts, this ship can board at harbourfront at 10am and sail to international water, then sail back to harbourfront?The ship is anchored in international waters off Batam.
You take a ferry from sg to the ship via Batam. Back the same way. There are ferries to and from kukup too mainly for Malaysians.
The ship only comes back to sg port once a week for supplies, used to be in Thursdays.
Gambling cruise usually for day trips. Only the regulars stay overnight and you need pay extra for the rooms (usually by exchange of rolling chips). The hardcore ones dun sleep so dun need cabins they will sleep at lounge or the staircases even that’s why they later discourage overnighters without room.Star cruise and this kind of cruise are totally different.
Star cruise patrons are all familees, with some gambling ghost among the familee.
This type of cruise are all disgusting gambling ghosts.
You will leegret paying $50 or even free.
The incident happened at 4.00 AM when most still in dreamland. Very risky.Sounds dangerous...
Yes leisure world amazing world sun cruise agean and whatever names they used to go by back then adopt this method.According to Ts, this ship can board at harbourfront at 10am and sail to international water, then sail back to harbourfront?
I have only tried once taking ferry from tenah merah ft, then switched to another ferry from Batam to Leisure world, then next morning the cruise sailed to harbourfront for disembarking. It was to topup supplies. I think you are talking about this.

There’s nothing to do but gamble on the gambling cruise coz they are much smaller. There’s a sad lounge cabaret getai type performances which almost no one watches. There’s massage joint with a few masseurs used to be Indonesians. And a swimming pool which no one swims . Other than gambling you can eat buffet during mealtimes
Sun vista owned by Sun cruises owned by metro also caught fire and burned down. These gambling vessels are very old and likely abandoned recommissioned and also reason why they dun sail much just anchored them at one placeThe incident happened at 4.00 AM when most still in dreamland. Very risky.

A fire broke out onboard the Liberia-flagged cruise ship World Legacy on Friday (Feb 20) morning, said the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA).
The incident happened at around 4am, at the lounge area of deck nine, when the vessel was enroute to Singapore.
In a media statement on Friday morning, MPA said the fire was brought under control by crew members. The authority, in a second update issued at 11.50am, said the fire was extinguished by Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) marine firefighters.
One of the 388 crew members, an Indonesian national, is reported to have died from the fire. His body has been transferred ashore and the Indonesian embassy in Singapore has been notified.

None of the crew members onboard are Singaporeans.
There were also 271 passengers onboard the cruise ship at the time of the incident, of whom 139 are Singaporeans.
MPA said there were no reported injuries among the other crew members and passengers.
Checks by AsiaOne at 8.45am showed that the vessel is currently anchored at Raffles Reserve Anchorage, about 8.6km southeast of Sentosa and south of Pulau Semakau.

At least two ferries — Queen Star 1 and Majestic Serenity — are seen on ship tracking platform MarineTraffic alongside the cruise ship.
In addition, there are at least five SCDF Marine Division vessels and two MPA vessels around World Legacy.
According to MPA, its patrol craft, along with the Police Coast Guard and Singapore Civil Defence Force's Marine Division are attending to the cruise ship.
In its update at 11.50am, MPA said the first group of 190 passengers has been evacuated from the vessel.
All passengers were safely disembarked by around 1pm. They were disembarked at HarbourFront Ferry Terminal.
A total of four passengers were conveyed to hospital for further medical assessment by SCDF.

Meanwhile, a core crew will remain onboard the anchored vessel to conduct safety checks, essential vessel operations and to support ongoing investigation. The non-essential crew were disembarked progressively from 4.15pm onwards.

Classification society surveyors engaged by World Cruises, the vessel’s owner, will board the ship to assess the damages and the repairs to be carried out before World Legacy can be returned to service.
A safety zone has also been established around World Legacy, with navigational broadcasts issued by MPA to advise passing vessels to keep clear.
AsiaOne has reached out to World Legacy for more information.

Yes. Junket told me this is call port call..According to Ts, this ship can board at harbourfront at 10am and sail to international water, then sail back to harbourfront?
I have only tried once taking ferry from tenah merah ft, then switched to another ferry from Batam to Leisure world, then next morning the cruise sailed to harbourfront for disembarking. It was to topup supplies. I think you are talking about this.
There was once around 2001. I took star cruise solely to gamble for a night.
Boarded the cruise as usual from harbourfront, eat buffet, sail out, then start to phua.
Next morning, it sailed back to harbourfront.
Quite a good and enjoyable experience. Compared to those leegular star Cruise trips having too many days and nothing to do. This kind of arrangement doesn't need cabin too.
I think port call on same day at harboufront is one month a few time only..Yes leisure world amazing world sun cruise agean and whatever names they used to go by back then adopt this method.
Logic dictates the big ship won’t come to shore daily. Berthing and fuel costs won’t cover it.
Mbs now give complimentary room. premier room.Of course follow port call better. Where got time take 2 hour ferry,to and fro is 4 hour wasted. Might as well pay 150 go rws better
