Singapore’s ‘cruise to nowhere’ pilot for safe cruises will continue as planned, the city state’s tourism board has confirmed.

The decision comes after a four-day cruise out of Singapore was cut short by a suspected case of Covid-19 among one of the ship’s passengers.

On Thursday, Singapore’s ministry of health (MOH) confirmed that following additional tests, the passenger on Royal Caribbean International’s 169,000-dwt Quantum of the Seas (built 2014) did not have Covid-19.
