Resorts World Cruises has officially announced a historic transformation, marking the grand return of two legendary Asian cruise brands: StarCruises and Dream Cruises. This transition signifies not just a name change but a declaration of excellence and innovation aimed at redefining cruising experiences in Asia. The complete transition is expected to be finalized by the end of April 2025.
After operating under the Resorts World Cruises banner since June 2022, the brand is returning to its roots by reviving StarCruises and Dream Cruises. This revival brings back the original essence of cruising in Asia, which has shaped the industry for over 30 years. The brand transition period will take approximately three months, during which the focus will be on delivering unique, refreshed cruising experiences tailored to modern travelers.
The revitalized StarCruises will offer mid-sized ships, each accommodating around 2,000 passengers, creating a more intimate and accessible voyage. Key highlights include:
Dream Cruises will continue to be synonymous with luxury cruising. With ships accommodating over 3,000 passengers, Dream Cruises will offer:
Genting Dream will be homeported in Singapore all year round, offering itineraries to Malaysia and Thailand, perfect for travelers seeking a seamless blend of city exploration and cruising.
The official launch of both revitalized brands took place aboard the Star Voyager in Singapore. The Star Voyager, equipped with a US$50 million refit, will offer a variety of itineraries from Singapore across Southeast Asia, including destinations like Melaka, Jakarta, Bangkok, Ko Samui, and Ho Chi Minh City.
By clearly differentiating StarCruises and Dream Cruises, the brand is set to cater to diverse traveler preferences while solidifying its leadership in the Asian cruise industry. With vibrant new offerings and a commitment to quality, both brands are ready to welcome travelers on unforgettable journeys.
