SuperStar Gemini officially commenced her Shanghai homeport deployment


Star Cruises' cruise ship SuperStar Gemini officially called Shanghai her homeport deployment with the first batch of about 1,000 passengers from China and other regional countries, departing from Shanghai at 1 pm for Jeju, Korea.

After kicking off SuperStar Gemini’s Shanghai-homeport deployment, the vessel called at Jeju yesterday (9 April) with about 1,000 passengers from China and other regional countries. Amidst traditional Jeju dance performance, the vessel and passengers were warmly welcomed by Jeju Special Self-Governing Province Government, local communities and media. After the welcome ceremony that was graced by Mr Kim Sun-woo, Environmental and Economic Vice Governor, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, the Jeju guests went onboard SuperStar Gemini to enjoy specially-arranged brunch and production show, and toured the vessel.

From April to October 2013, SuperStar Gemini will be homeported in Shanghai and offer over 40 cruises in 4D3N to 7D6N itineraries. The travel market overwhelmingly received SuperStar Gemini’s cruises and over half of the cruises have been sold shortly after launch. SuperStar Gemini will visit popular tourist ports, including Busan, Jeju and Yeosu and offer special cruises to Taiwan. SuperStar passengers also have a vast selection of unique shore excursions to explore various local tourist attractions.
