The 76,800 tonne ship is one of the biggest and most luxurious in the world, with capacity to carry 1966 passengers. It is operated by Star Cruises and is normally based in Hong Kong.

Thanks to the strong interest in cruising generated by the SuperStar Virgo's visits to Fremantle last year, Star Cruises has extended its SuperStar Leo service to incorporate a visit to Fremantle.

SuperStar Leo departs Fremantle for the last time this season at 8 pm on Sunday 18 January, when it sails for Hong Kong via Adelaide and Melbourne.
