Seeking comments on planned cruise

[chuckdefatia]

Hi

I am considering the following cruise:

 

http://www.celebritycruises.com/cruises/cruise-package-ML12I023?packageid=ML12I023&dest=FAR.E&shipCode=ML&shipName=Celebrity%20Millennium&sailDate=1170114&cabincls=INTERIOR&promotype=

 

I think that one can expect a lot of rain in the areas of Taiwan, China and HK.

 

Has anyone done a smilar cruise? Comments?

 

I travel for photography (not a pro).

 

Thx.

This site is great for historical temps and precipitation. You can do the research for each port during the month you will be there. We've been to that part of the world numerous times - expect at least warm to hot and humid, always be prepared for rain.

The end of your cruise is close to Chinese New Year which is Jan. 28 in 2017. Be aware that there will be a lot more Asian tourists than usual, and you may have difficulty getting flights out (although getting flights in at that time would be a nightmare). Two years in a row I found myself trying to get into Asia at that time, and it was a challenge. EM

This is the crusie I hae now booked on the Diamond Princess.

 

In terms of Asia holidays etc anything I should be aware of? Any info appreciated.

You might want to go out to your roll call to connect with others on your specific cruise.

Also look into the Asian ports of call board for the individual ports.
