The recently announced Cross Border Pass arrangement will make cruising to popular destinations Danang and Halong Bay in Vietnam on SuperStar Gemini hassle free for all Chinese nationals.

From now, Chinese passengers with a valid ID card can simply apply for a Cross Border Pass to indulge in SuperStar Gemini’s 4D3N Halong Bay/Danang and 3D2N Halong Bay cruise holidays.

As the first international cruise line to homeport a ship in Sanya, Star Cruises welcomes this arrangement. The ease and convenience will attract more Chinese vacationers to go to Sanya and join Star Cruises’ voyages to see the awe-inspiring limestone karsts and islands in Halong Bay and the heritage and historic sites in Danang.

The new arrangement coincides with the commencement of Star Cruises’ third year of seasonal homeport deployment in Sanya. Besides targeting family and group travellers, Star Cruises has been actively engaging corporate clients in promoting cruise travel. The simplified travel arrangement will be advantageous to MICE business development as it allows corporations to host more company trips onboard ships.

The new Cross Border Pass arrangement is also expected to boost the cruise tourism economy and related businesses in Sanya and enhance its competitiveness and attractiveness as an international cruise homeport and tourist destination.

SuperStar Gemini is currently on her seasonal deployment in Sanya until 14 March, 2014. It will be a perfect opportunity for first-timers to experience Star Cruises’ renowned freestyle cruising. The ship offers a variety of onboard dining and entertainment tailor-made for Chinese tourists. It features 765 cabins of different categories, an extensive retail area of 552 square meters, a host of dining, recreation, leisure and entertainment options complemented with a vibrant and friendly international crew and Star Cruises’ unique Asian style hospitality.
