      Www:

      Thank you.

      Just realize the gratuity is already added in the bill. Thought on top of what is paid still got to add on. Cannot remove on my time when buy the tickets.
      You can call them up and remove My Time timing. I was given a default timing. 8.30pm I think. Wanted to change to an earlier timing but cannot do it online. I called them up and they remove it for me. After that I could go online and change the timing. Anyway, even if you have booked the timing online, u can still change when u on the day itself.

        The staff called and explained on the prepaid gratuity, saying is fix and a must, so got choose my time timing or not also need to pay prepaid gratuity which is all included in my bill already.

        Now much clearer after explanation from the staff. šŸ˜„

        No need to pay extra since all in the charge. Explain to husband too, so he won't say me for choosing the time and got charge extra for the prepaid gratuity. šŸ¦†

We don't have to pay anything extra. On the other hand, my in laws on international cruise are required to pay though. So it depends. I guess Asian cruise and international cruise are different ba. šŸ™‚

            Forgot to check with the staff just now during first day is it 1.5 hr before the boarding time or the actual boarding time?

            Need to bring toothbrush or toothpaste? Allow to bring packet drinks there?

            Cash all paid in S$ on board for additional things to buy?

              U can board around noon time. It should be indicated in the information booklet which u can download after u login. I remember having a very relax buffet lunch before the ship set sail. šŸ™‚

              Drinks are not allowed to be brought in but nobody checked anyway. Toothbrush and toothpaste, usually we brought along our own when we travelled.

              All are settled in US dollar on board. I suggest u change unless u don't mind using credit card to pay. I think there is a surcharge for using credit card.

                    A little bored after only one day.


                    We sign up for a short trip only. Nothing much to do, even my child also feels bored. Eat, sleep and watch TV most of the time. The ship is very stable which is a good thing.
