Having been to all three places I would rate them

1. Tokyo

2. Singapore

3. KL

I guess it depends what your interests are. Obviously you are looking at extra airfares if you deicide on Tokyo or KL.

To me Japan is a separate trip itself, there is so much more to Japan than Tokyo. Even having been there a few times now just to go to Tokyo for a few nights wouldnt do it justice really.

Singapore trumps KL by far so I would prob be inclined to go with that. You will find plenty to do for a few days.

I also just noticed you are cruising in June. June is the worst possible time to visit Tokyo. That's their rainy season - lots of rain and super hot and muggy

Awesome report and pics!! I enjoyed the trian on my first trip and am looking forwards to doing the drive on my upcoming trip to get a different perspective and to go further!

Just came across this and am slowly catching up!!! Amazing so far, so helpful for my upcoming cruise on her in Jan!!!

Thanks a great review!! Can't wait to sail her!!!

I have all the CC's there now plus some info for decks 6 & 5.

 

New link for it as well. My Cruise Diary

Thanks they are great!!!

Cruise diary is a work in progress. I am not sure how much info and detail to put into it though, and it was not till i started that i realised i could have taken heaps more photos!

 

I have all 11 days worth of the CC and was not sure if people wanted to see them or not, looks like people do so when I have time off I will scan them all.

 

Catr13, I see you will be doing the same 12 nighter as us next month. I am looking forward to visiting the island of Santos.

Yes I would love to read more CC if you get a chance to scan.

Yes I am very much looking forwards to all the ports. I have never been to any before and when I saw this itinerary I thought it was the cream of the crop!! You are so lucky to be going back again so soon!!

Here is day 1 of our February cruise.

 

Day 1 Compass

Thanks that's perfect! I loved your whole cruise diary!!

12 April 2013 Rhapsody of the Seas 12night South Pacific

5 Jan 2014 Allure of the Seas Eastern Caribbean

12 Jan 2014 Celebrity Silhouette Western Caribbean

Does anyone have any recent compasses (South Pacific) for Rhapsody of the Seas?

Thanks so much these are great, the exact cruise I am doing at the exact same time next year!

Do you know what time regualr disembarkation begins? I think we will have far too much luggage to do self. The flight i want to book leaves at 11.45 am i think.

Ok so to clear it up for Australians I just got my beverage package! Yay!! I booked a Caribbean cruise the other day through their website. I rang up and asked about the 1,2,3 package applying and was told the Miami office will apply the beverage package and they have been mostly doing it within 72 hours. Seems Aussies don't get a choice it has to be the beverage package? Cause I didnt get to say I wanted that choice, but its fine with me cause thats what I wanted. I just got an updated invoice now and it shows up. I went online but it hasnt shown up on my extras there yet.

Loving your review so far!! I never get bored of reviews! <Sigh> still so long til i set sail on her!!

Aww cool thanks for the heads up. Looks like I am in a cabin with a bed by the balcony so I am haopy with that going by if it gives you more room!!!

Too many! 487 :eek:

Does Island Princess have the new mattresses? I tend to like firm but would be nice to know.

 

Thanks
