We would like to give you an update on the latest hotel related developments.

GYD
We are still working on a solution there. Whilst it is our recommendation to move to another hotel, the “Park Hyatt” is putting a lot of effort into mitigating the effects of the construction works that are taking place at this time. Unfortunately, there will be additional renovations inside the hotel building that will follow at the end of this year or at the beginning of next year. With that in mind we are encouraged to go ahead with our recommendation to move at least temporarily. Good alternatives have been inspected and communicated to the Cargolux management.

We are happy to announce a hotel change from the “Bourbon“ to the “NH hotel“. We are confident that you will perceive the change as an improvement in your rest quality.

SIN
We have been very busy trying to find another crew hotel as the “Pan Pacific” does not want to host our crews any longer despite credible efforts undertaken from Cargolux management to extend the contract.

These facts in mind, the Hotel Committee performed already a number of hotel reviews in the familiar Suntec City area. Some of the inspected hotels had either some deficiencies in our mandatory requirements, others haven’t been interested in hosting us at all.

This short notice termination of contract by the “Pan Pacific” management has forced us to go on a trial period with a non-inspected hotel. For now, crews will be accommodated in “The Pullman“ hotel on Orchard road until we had the chance to set up a proper alternative for Singapore.

Your feedback and suggestions on the new hotel are highly appreciated.
