Azamara Quest has arrived in Singapore ahead of schedule, and the repairs to the damage caused by the engine room fire are proceeding as planned. We continue to be pleased with the progress that has been made on the ship, and are on schedule to complete the necessary work before Azamara Quest’s next scheduled sailing from Mumbai (Bombay), India on Tuesday, April 24.

We encourage guests on the April 24 sailing of Azmara Quest to monitor Azamara Club Cruises’ website for additional updates on the repairs. Guests who have any additional questions regarding Azamara Quest may call toll free 1.888.829.4050 from the United States and Canada. Guests outside the United States may call direct or collect to 1.408.916.9001.

The condition of the Azamara Quest crew member that was more severely injured continues to improve. While he is still at the hospital in Manila, he is no longer in the Intensive Care Unit. His wife and sister are with him, which has greatly improved his spirits. They are all thankful for the opportunity to be together, and we will continue to do our very best to assist them. Our thoughts and prayers are with our crew member and his family.

Azamara Club Cruises would like to thank everyone for their thoughtfulness and concern regarding our injured crew member. Many of you have asked for a way to make a donation to assist him. If you would like to make a donation, please make the check payable to Azamara Club Cruises, write "Crew Donation/Azamara Quest” on the memo field, and mail to the address below. One hundred percent of all contributions will go directly to the fund we have set up for our injured crew member.
