Star Cruises today announced SuperStar Libra’s latest deployment from 3 September onwards with triple homeports in Kuala Lumpur via Port Klang and Penang in Malaysia, as well as in Phuket, Thailand, with two cruises per week, including the 3-nights Kuala Lumpur (via Port Klang)/Phuket/Penang cruise or the 4-nights Kuala Lumpur (via Port Klang)/Langkawi/Phuket/Penang cruise.

With the introduction of Star Cruises’ multiple homeports and fly-cruise options, guests in Southeast Asia as well as the region will now have more flexibility and easy access to take a cruise with SuperStar Libra from any of these three well-connected key cities, especially Kuala Lumpur, which is now a major aviation hub in Asia.

“We are extremely delighted with SuperStar Libra’s new deployment in Kuala Lumpur, together with Penang and Phuket,” said Mr. Ang Moo Lim, President of Star Cruises. “Star Cruises is optimistic this will grow our source markets in Southeast Asia, allowing guests more access to multiple homeports and concurrently developing and stimulating the growth of the cruise tourism sector across borders through fly-cruise options.”

Throughout Star Cruises’ outstanding long history and strong connection with Malaysia and Thailand, Star Cruises had pioneered the cruising industry in the region for over 24 years and will continue to do so, bringing in millions of tourists and tourism dollars, growing both the local cruise tourism and international/inbound travel via the fly-cruise travel market.

With Penang previously as the only homeport for SuperStar Libra in Malaysia, domestic travelers nationwide and international passengers can now celebrate with more options to either embark from the historically rich culture city of Penang or the modern bustling city of Kuala Lumpur via its new main homeport in Port Klang, Malaysia. Kuala Lumpur remains one the key gateway to Malaysia and also the Southeast Asian region with an expected targeted inbound tourism of over 30 million in 2017. In Thailand, Phuket is also a renowned destination for many international tourists and Star Cruises is now opening up options for travelers from the island, both domestic and from the fly-cruise travel to hop a cruise with SuperStar Libra.

During SuperStar Libra’s triple homeport deployment in Malaysia and Thailand, guests of all ages, including families, can look forward to many exciting activities on board the 10-storey cruise ship. Star Cruises remains passionate and committed in offering the best cruise experience with a free and easy cruising holiday concept, accentuated by world-class service with a familiar touch of Asian hospitality.
