I flew to Singapore on January 27th. to join
Sapphire Princess the next day, for 3 weeks around South East Asia (two cruises). I'd been to all these ports many times before so I spent most of the time on the ship enjoying the facilities and hot, humid weather throughout. I flew home on February 20th. Both the flights, with Singapore Airlines, were excellent with great food, wine and service. The cruises too, were excellent with the very high standard of obliging and friendly service and great food, as I always experience in Princess ships. The ship itself, soon to to dry dock for hull and technical work as well as a refresh (new carpets etc.) was spotless inside, very comfortable and in very good condition.
