is UDP worth it if it cost 212.16 per pax?
The package prices increase a lot compare to QOTS, making me having some doubt.

If you choose to eat at all 7 specialty restaurants, it works out about SGD 30++ per pax per restaurant.

Compared to the Chops+1 Package which is already SGD130+ per pax. For SGD 80+ more, you get to try a few more specialty restaurants.

Since it's also a school holiday sailing, you may want to pay a bit more to avoid the crowds at MDR/Windjammer. YMMV, of course.

Really depends on what you going on-board for. Tbh, the hotpot, szechaun red and izumi nothing to shout about. Maybe only jamie's, chops grill and tappan worth going. If you would just wanna try out 2 restaurants and go for the MDR/buffet then the Chops +1 should be good enough. Since now buffet can self-serve, should be better. Also, for MDR, the food is ok de, just need to wait slightly longer for the food to come as they are quite short-handed.

If not mistaken, teppanyaki also need to top-up for the main course so it works out quite expensive. Perhaps it has more entertainment value instead.

looks like a few bros going on 16/6. can have a mini meet-up there!

with the bringing forward of check-in time, not sure if the boarding time will also bring forwards also?

Check in and boarding time will be different? Thought once checked, can pass immigration and board already

my concern is for certain reason, we cannot do the ART test the day prior and we only can do the testing on the actual day 9am. can we still make it for the 11.30am boarding? i have actually booked our testing slots at 9am on boarding day. worst case scenario is after the testing at 9am, make our way to MBCC while waiting for the result. How fast can we have the result? We doing the testing via online (Kingston).

Heyhey, have any bros been on a recent cruise trip? Any idea how much is the deluxe beverage package onboard per day, excluding or including gratuity?
If I buy online, I have to buy the whole duration so I'm checking if its too exp to buy onboard for just 1 or 2 nights.
If its the whole duration and my trip is 4d3n, it means I can start drinking from start on day 1 till day 4 morning? Gamxia

I have a question... do we need to book the tele-ART ON BOARDING DAY?

Just booked w Kingston for my June ART. The reviews are so mixed, but seems like most here managed to do it smoothly. Praying for a smooth one too.
