Singapore's cruise landscape set to grow: STB
The Singapore Tourism Board (STB) said the cruise landscape is set to grow in 2012 to 2013, with major cruise lines either increasing their presence in Southeast Asia or deploying new vessels to Singapore.
Adding credence to the growth potential is Costa Cruises.
Europe's number one cruise company is the first to enter the Asian market. Tapping on the region's growth potential, it now offers cruise itineraries out of Singapore to Malaysia and Thailand.
It is also working with the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and Changi Airport Group (CAG) to develop Singapore as a cruise hub in Asia, expanding into new markets which include Hong Kong, Japan, India and China.
STB said its vision is supported by Singapore's investment in cruise centres -- such as Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore and Singapore Cruise Centre -- and Changi Airport's strong connectivity to over 200 cities worldwide.
