I’ve just disembarked a cruise on the biggest American cruise ship ever designed for the Chinese market, we sailed from Singapore to Tokyo and although I’ve cruised plenty of times in the past in America or Europe this trip surprised me in every way possible. From the ship to the passengers, the entertainment to the destinations, it was completely different to what I’m used to.

I have cruised with Royal Caribbean in the past and have always enjoyed the experience so when I saw that they were sailing in Asia I thought that this would be the perfect way to give a trip like this a go. The reviews of this ship were considerably worst than others in the fleet but I was honestly ready for anything and I wanted to find out why.

We boarded the ship in Singapore and despite the fact that there were lots of different nationalities onboard and visas needed it actually didn’t take as long as I expected. They did take and keep our passports which is very common on Asia cruises. We had copies of our passports and our driving licenses so it wasn’t a problem.

I’d already checked in online pre-cruise and because I’m from the UK I didn’t need any visas for the places that we were visiting. Spectrum of the Seas was built in 2019 and she can hold almost 5000 people at maximum capacity. I’d learn later that the most popular common onboard was Singaporean! Which does make sense and it explains a lot of things that happened on the cruise.
