Hi Horus! Thank you for watching☺ Yes, cruising solo is actually fun too. You can do all the activities at your own pace, you can enjoy your own company. And you can meet other solo cruisers too😊
Hi, I’ve been on this cruise with a friend before and am considering going alone. However I am concerned if it would be too boring. If you could speak to your motivation on why you decided to go solo on a cruise? and what did you enjoy most about cruising alone? that would be really helpful. Thanks in advanced 🙏🏻
Hi thank you for watching😊 My husband was supposed to come with me in this cruise but due to his work commitment he was not able to join. There's so much activities you can do onboard, I'm sure you will never run out of things to do and will not be bored. You can join tour groups if you want to explore when the ship docked at Malaysia and/or Phuket. For me, I enjoy my own company and I can do things at my own pace. It was fun and sometimes when you do things alone, you will discover a lot about yourself and your capabilities. Have fun and enjoy your solo cruise!
@Fraser at Sea I don't mind traveling solo but I would never take a cruise alone because they are designed with couples or more in mind. The idea of having a bunch of singles meet and cruise is a good one.
Hi Cyns, thank you for watching. I am residing and working in Singapore where the cruise departed from so there is no need for me to book hotel. There are a lot of hotels near the cruise port with prices from cheap to luxury range. The budget friendy hotels are near Bugis and Cityhall station and the pricey ones are those near Marina Bay area.
@@cynslee_ Hi Cyns, sorry I dont have idea how much those photos are. I recommend taking your own photos which is cheaper and definitely more fun and memorable.
Hi Eli, thank you for watching😊 Yes, there is an option of which cabin you want to book. You can choose to book cabins at the higher deck if you want unobstructed view from your balcony.
@@pyt6631 Hi PY T! Thank you for watching😊 There was a promo at that time of my booking so I got the room at a good price. From what I know, the cabins are by default for 2 pax. So if you would book 1 cabin for 2 pax the price would be a little bit more compared to booking 1 cabin for 1 pax.
Hi Ariel, thank you for watching☺ I book the cruise directly from Royal Caribbean website. Here is the link below. www.royalcaribbean.com/sgp/en?&ecid=ps_43700064477871883&country=SGP&&&gclid=CjwKCAjw6IiiBhAOEiwALNqncRKpSaTlM1d9fuDSsWHFPUybdMtThcURuc6yfhOup8V7GIBCnPhiehoCYYwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
hi! really enjoyed your video, can I ask does it cost you extra for room service? is it available on breakfast only? and if it's free do we still have to pay for gratuity/tip for the crew or no? thanks! :D
Hi Grace Gracie thank you for watching my video. I appreciate that you enjoyed it😊 I did not pay extra for the continental room service breakfast. It is a complimentary service for breakfast only and its up to you if you want to give tip to the service crew or not. However, there is an automatic gratuity/tip that is added to all other purchased drinks, mini bar items, spa, salon and other purchased services onboard.
@@yuyuwanders hi thanks for the reply! so the gratuity is the one included when we book the cruise right? what about any other taxes like departure tax/is there any tax we should pay when docking at other countries? is there anything else you should pay outside of the payment we made for the cruise? I'm going next year and I'm wondering if there's any taxes or stuff so I can somewhat figure out how much SGD I should exchange hahaha. sorry if I ask too much, thanks again! :D
@@grxciegrace Hi Grace, its my pleasure answering viewers' questions☺ The cruise fare includes gratuities, taxes and port charges when you book it. However, purchases and services rendered onboard a Royal Caribbean ship will have gratuities added at the time of purchase. If you buy a drink, get a massage at the spa, or eat at a specialty restaurant, you will be charged an 18% gratuity automatically. Your receipt will display the cost breakdown. As for docking to other countries, you don't have to pay anything anymore because it is already included in your cruise fare. You just have to pay for the purchases you made onshore. Have a safe and fun cruise next year. I hope you enjoy the it as much or even more than I did. Just have fun and relax☺
@@adeleparry7734 Hi Adele, thank you for watching😊 I paid for solo room, however the price difference for solo and double occupancy is $200+ only so I would suggest to pay extra $200 and get 1 more person with you which will be more fun, unless you want to travel solo ofc😄
Nice run through. Am going on this cruise in March. This gives a good idea of what to expect. Thank you. Just a. Quick question though, they gave dinner time does it mean we have to stick to our time or we can go for dinner anytime?
Hi Gladson Joel, thank you for watching😊 I did not make any reservations for dinner at the main dining room. I just walked in and queued for seat availability. I guess if you dont mind queuing and waiting, you can walk in for dinner anytime.
Hi Roj, thank you for watching😊. I appreciate your feedback. I booked the cruise directly from the Royal Caribbean website. At that time of my cruise required pa ang swab test before boarding. As of today, pre-cruise testing is no longer required to sail, with a few exceptions. May sale ang Royal Caribbean na 50% tapos kids are free. If you are interested go check their website and book that cruise. Really worth it😁
Hi Reynalene! Thank you for watching and Im happy you enjoyed the vlog😊. Starting nung Feb13,2023 hindi na required ang mga travellers entering singapore na magpresent ng covid19 vaccination certificates and PCR or antigen negative results.
Hi Skyhighland Bowles, thank you for watching😊 Yes, for the most part, cruises overall are safe. However, same as if you were traveling elsewhere, be constantly alert and vigilant onboard and onshore.
Hi, do you always travel alone? ever think of organizing small group for short trip? I will like to join you as you look mature , approachable person and I am lone ranger too.
Hi Kai Kok Seet, thank you for watching my video and for the compliment😊. I love travelling and I normally travel with my husband or sister or just by myself when their schedules dont permit them to come with me. Sure, I would love to organize a tour group. It would be fun meeting other travellers too😊
Thank you for sharing your video ~'m looking fw to it 😄 Is there any fee charge for room service? Need to pay wifi fee for text msgs? How much to bring along > ie, to change SG$ to US$? Thank you!
Hi Silver Kris, thank you for watching😊 The continental breakfast room service (which I had in the video) is complimentary but other than that room services are chargeable. They have wifi but you have to purchase it onboard. All purchases onboard will be charged accordingly to creditcard/debit card which you will provide at the start of the cruise on day 1 through their Royal Caribbean app. When the ship is docked and you want to get off the ship to explore the city, all expenses will depend on how much you want to spend. I suggest to bring cash, especially in Malaysia where there's a lot food options so dont forget to change malaysian ringgit. I hope I answered your questions😊
Greetings from Manchester UK... Very enjoyable Vlog 👍👍👍 We're sailing in February 2023, very much looking forward to it... Do you still have to have an ART COVID test on the day of sailing? I have heard that this is no longer needed? Thanks 👍
