As such, passengers can easily commute and explore the city using Singapore\u2019s mass transit system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Cruise news specialists are suggesting there could be yet another name change for the ship as reliable industry sources posted on Facebook saying it would be renamed Star Voyager when it completes the USD50 million refit. Resorts World Cruises has yet to confirm the renaming, but it is expected to be celebrated ahead of the maiden sailings on 26 March to Melaka in Malaysia and Jakarta, Indonesia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SINGAPORE, 3 February 2025: Resorts World Cruises\u2019 newest ship, the 1,800-passenger Star Scorpio, is undergoing a USD50 million renovation and upgrade in Singapore before it enters services sailing Southeast Asian cruises starting 26 March 2025.
