A NEW player will enter the
market on the Ayeyarwady River
in Myanmar early next year, with
The Strand Cruise an offshoot of
the Strand Hotel in Yangon.
Initially launching with a single
self-titled ship, The Strand Cruise
will position itself as a five-star
player in the market with a crew
ratio of 1:1 and a la carte cuisine.
Passengers booking high level
suites will offer bonuses such as
a one-hour spa treatment, one
night at The Strand Hotel pre or
post-cruise and airport transfers.
The ship will offer 27 suites with
twin-share capacity and will be
ready to set sail later this year.
