Resorts World Cruises (RWC) has become the first international cruise line to homeport in Indonesia, with the arrival of Resorts World One in Jakarta on June 16.
Travellers from Indonesia can now enjoy a cruise vacation with the convenience of embarking Resorts World One from Tanjung Priok in Jakarta weekly, with four round-trip six-day-five-night Singapore-Kuala Lumpur cruises on June 16, 21 and 26, as well as July 1.
To celebrate this milestone, RWC, together with the local Indonesian authorities, held a special event to welcome the maiden arrival and first sailing of the Resorts World One from Jakarta, Indonesia.
“On behalf of Resorts World Cruises, we are deeply excited to charter a new history here in Indonesia and be part of this milestone event as the first international cruise line to homeport in Indonesia with Resorts World One. The responses have been very positive and we look forward to a successful deployment from Jakarta,” said Michael Goh, president of RWC.
“It is our hope that the deployment of Resorts World One in Jakarta will provide positive prospects and increase the number of international tourists visiting Indonesia, which will also boost the country’s foreign exchange. This deployment will also enable the port of Tanjong Priok to not only be a homeport, but also a cruise hub and destination for more cruise tourists to explore various local destinations,” added Itok Parikesit, director of special interest tourism, Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy of the Republic of Indonesia.
