The Straits Times (ST) reported that the first group of passengers left the ship at about 8:40am, and were seen at the customs area about 15 minutes later.

According to CNA, these passengers were immediately taken to the airport.

They appear to be in good spirits as the buses took off, waving to media that were gathered there.

According to CNA, the mood in the cruise ship had been "fine", but some were disappointed at not being able to disembark at Penang or Phuket.

According to the authorities on Monday (March 9), the doctor on board the ship will check on the passengers and crew to ensure they are healthy before disembarking.

All passengers entering Singapore are also required to undergo temperature screening as a precautionary measure.

Those exhibiting fever and/or symptoms of respiratory illness but do not meet the Ministry of Health’s clinical case definition may also be required to undergo a Covid-19 swab test.

Any passengers identified for the swab test but refuse to do so will not be allowed entry into Singapore.

Mothership has reached out to MPA to ask if there were any such passengers.
