Singapore closed 2025 with 375 cruise calls and over two million passengers — and then raised the ceiling: expanded berths, a Disney homeport, and the region’s biggest cruise bet.
Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore ended 2025 with 375 ship calls and more than two million passengers — up roughly 10% and 9% on 2024 — as the terminal’s expansion lifted simultaneous capacity from 6,800 to 11,700 passengers. The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection made its first Southeast Asia deployment in December 2025; regional lines keep MBCCS and the older HarbourFront terminal busy year-round.
The headline act arrives in March 2026: Disney Adventure, Disney Cruise Line’s first ship homeported in Asia, begins year-round sailings from Marina Bay — the single largest cruise commitment ever made to the region, aimed at families from India to Indonesia.
Singapore’s other sea business never sleeps: the container port is among the world’s top transhipment hubs, and from HarbourFront the Bintan and Batam ferries run the 45–70-minute hop to Indonesia’s resort islands all day. For travellers, the cruise terminal’s location is the luxury — Marina Bay Sands is a ten-minute taxi from the gangway.
If a Disney Adventure sailing fits your dates, book it the moment cabins open — inaugural-season Southeast Asia sailings are selling like concert tickets. Embarkation at MBCCS is the smoothest in Asia: luggage to cabin in under an hour is normal. And keep the Batam ferry in your pocket as a two-day side trip — 50 minutes and you are on an Indonesian beach.
