Visio Scheduled for Two Short Roundtrip Sailings From Tianjin
Tianjin Oriental Cruises planned three-day voyages at sea for August 29 and 31, with no intermediate port calls.
Public booking information indicated that Tianjin Oriental Cruises would operate two three-day, two-night Visio voyages from Tianjin International Cruise Home Port. The roundtrip sailings were scheduled to depart on August 29 and August 31 and remain at sea before returning to Tianjin.
Cruise-industry coverage said each voyage was due to leave at 3 p.m. Prices on some Chinese travel platforms were advertised from about 800 yuan per person. Planned onboard activities included live performances and comedy shows.
Industry reports described the departures as northern China’s first commercial use of the cruise-to-nowhere format. The Ministry of Transport categorizes such sailings as special international voyages, according to the report.
Earlier in the year, Adora Magic City completed a three-day, two-night voyage from Shanghai without a destination, the report said.
