From offering direct baggage transfers between Changi Airport and cruise ships to spending millions on marketing efforts, Singapore is aiming to be Asia’s premier cruise hub.
The region’s cruise tourism market is tipped to grow to 3.8 million passengers by 2020, based on industry projections. Singapore attracted 1.03 million cruise passengers and 391 ships last year, jumps of 13 per cent and 17 per cent respectively from 2012.
Now it wants the lion’s share of the Asian market, currently dominated by China, which attracted about 1.4 million cruise passengers last year.
Apart from providing the necessary infrastructure at the cruise terminals at HarbourFront, Tanah Merah and Marina Bay, more will be done to develop the fly-cruise market.
