Blue Dream Cruises Faces Financial Collapse: Salaries Unpaid, Offices Closed, Ships for Sale

Blue Dream Cruises, a cruise operator based in Shanghai, China, is reportedly facing a dire financial crisis, with multiple legal challenges, unpaid wages, and the closure of its offices.

As the company struggles to stay afloat, its two cruise ships, the Blue Dream Melody and Blue Dream Star, are also being put up for sale, according to several industry sources.

The situation took a drastic turn in late December 2025, when the company announced the suspension of all cruise operations, leaving many employees without pay and in limbo.
