my friend wanted to buy the casino package but they say for suite class, you need to have a certain level of membership.

Any alternative way to get suite class for new member? Going to casino junket work?

Long time never post here lol

Looks like July dates also not that stable due to dunno when Govt will allow opening of borders and leisure travel... July dates most are offered to members for free cabins from dlx balcony to inside. Aug also offering free dlx to inside. This is not surprising as where got public want to cruise now.. Foreigners also got problem travelling for a time being.. .. So that will reduce 20 to 30% of passengers.

So if cruise will to be open earlier lets say july or aug.. There will be influx of MBS and resort world ppl as both IRs will still be closed till phase 3...

Most likely another round of Tier points extension for another 6 months.

Lets hope everything will start to get better and things can resume to normal in the next few months...:s12:

I hope our gove close this hole.by July/Aug in fact even till Q4, the situation will not be stable. Remember we just need one ppl.

Majority of mbs and resort world members are retirees, not young and fit like dorm cases. No joke if end up like JP princess cruise kena quarantine with more than half eventually kena.

Everyone got their respective views...:s22:

Diamond Princess is already clear that it is JP Govt mistake in handling that issue and not a fault of the cruise company.

The virus knows no borders whether is on land, sea or air. Thus there can be only be stringent measure on safety or the new normal... Cant be cruise means jialat right... Air travel & check points brings thousands travellers everyday too...

People can choose to be safe and don't travel that's fine.. Economy & livelihoods of people must also move on and resume.. Tourism & Services sectors is very important to most countries.

Anyway is all up to our task force to decide on border openings and resumption of activities..

Until a vaccine is found we must adapt to this new normal..

Indeed Diamond Princess was an unfortunate case. All passengers and crews should have been shifted out to a shore based quarantine or isolation accomodation but this was not available.

July dates confirm all cancel. They will only be doing Aug onwards for now.

Aug also hard to say..Most likely Sept i guess... High chance will all be high seas for the next few months for all itineraries.

World Dream also got booking dates starting from July.

Yes he is......

Ok so there will be 2 options i guess.. So i assume your frd is silver at least? and not just register online but have not activate the membership...

1. Call the membership hotline and see if they can buy the premium buy in package.

2. You can also buy cash rate for suites in the RWAS website.

Alternatively i see from Dream Cruise website the suites are going at lower prices then before.

Depends on your friend gameplay.. Tier like Plat & above gets free suite too or If got enough PP also can redeem suite.

dunno if end of year can go cruise or not

Year end i think mostly can...

My best guess is must wait till Phase 2 starts and Dream Cruise must raise their case to MTI to open up their cruise business. All depends on the overall cases by then and also what measures or safeguards in the proposal..

Our one MRT line brings more passengers in 30 minutes during peak hours then the entire cruise ship.

With Genting having huge investments in SG and their help to the govt for the workers.. Earliest maybe aug or latest around oct to restart the cruise business.

Having said that situation is all hard to say just hope things get better and we can resume our activities..

the customer service from RWAS kept calling weekly asking whether i wanna book for 1 august. then today called again telling me august is fully booked, now they open for Sep booking. Told them govt haven’t confirm sailing date and you call me to confirm departure. Later i kena quarantine and need to pay medical bills myself.

And also told them indonesia didn’t say they open for SG to visit as well, what if those disembark at Bintan caught the virus. They can’t answer me on this as well.

Recently they mentioned to media they will only open for sailing to high sea but now the booking is to malaysia, indonesia and thailand. Kinda dangerous esp to Bintan.

No definite answer.
If Phase 2 swee swee and no serious surge of cases within the community, Phase 3 may kick starts end July, or maybe earlier.
GD likely resumes CNW schedule (Cruise Nowhere/ High Sea) in the beginning. After all, most gamblers don't care where the cruise sails (including me=:p). The fact is, right now there are not many countries welcome Singaporean, don't think GD able to sail to anywhere except international water. Gamble "charter" the cruise, cool.
