Royal Caribbean International has announced that its Shanghai-based ship Spectrum of the Seas will be moving to Singapore in October 2022. From there, the vessel will operate three to nine-night voyages visiting the best of Asia starting October 21.
Spectrum was Royal Caribbean’s first Quantum Ultra Class ship, followed by Florida-based Odyssey of the Seas that debuted this year.
“We are thrilled to introduce a whole spectrum of new adventures with Spectrum of the Seas, which features groundbreaking escapades exclusively designed for the Asian market, a testament to Royal Caribbean’s confidence in the potential of the cruising industry in the region. We have seen a surge in repeat cruisers, as well as a significant number of new to cruise guests, and look forward to bringing the best of the Royal Caribbean experience to our guests,” said Angie Stephen, vice president, Singapore, Royal Caribbean International.
“At the same time, we are excited to extend Quantum’s ultimate ocean getaways once again through early next year to continue catering to the strong demand for sailings from Singapore.”
On board Spectrum of the Seas, passengers can enjoy Asian-inspired cuisine such as teppanyaki and hot pot-style dining, as well as entertainment that has been created with inspiration from China, Persia, and India.
