on-board SuperStar Virgo, the largest ship in Star Cruises’ Asian fleet, as part of a big upgrade set to take place in January. China Duty Free Group manages the duty free business on Star Cruises’ vessels.
The ship will undergo a three-week dry-dock renovation from 5 to 29 January, during which the 13-deck vessel will have an upgrade to cabins, retail, hotel, dining and recreational facilities.
Star Cruises Chief Operating Officer William Ng said: “This US$19.7 million refurbishment of SuperStar Virgo is a reflection of our continuous drive to grow in Asia. This will further cement Star Cruises’ leading position in the Asia-Pacific cruise industry. SuperStar Virgo will be on her home-port deployment in Hong Kong from April to October next year. Domestic travelers as well as those from China, Taiwan, Korea and Japan are expected to flock to Hong Kong next year to enjoy the top notch accommodation, shopping, leisure, entertainment and dining options available on this ship.”
SuperStar Virgo is currently home-ported in Singapore, offering itineraries to Penang, Phuket, Malacca and Port Klang. From 2 April to 28 October, 2014, SuperStar Virgo will be on her six-month Hong Kong homeport deployment, bringing passengers to Keelung (Taipei), Taichung and Kaohsiung in Taiwan, Sanya in Hainan and Halong Bay in Vietnam.
