After the end of her service for Viking Line, the Kalypso sailed to Naantali, Finland where she was docked and renamed MS Star Pisces. Later in the same month she sailed to Finnyards, Rauma, Finland, where she was rebuilt as a cruise ship. In April 1994 the ship joined her sister (now called MS Lankapuri Star Aquarius) for cruising from Singapore. Originally the ship sported a dark blue hull with a narrow red band on top, which was later changed into all-white, matching the livery of other Star Cruises' ships. She was later moved to making day and night cruises from Hong Kong. In May 2009 the ship suspended her sailings from Hong Kong and was laid up initially at Hong Kong, later moved to Port Klang for further lay up. In February 2010, she was reactivated for cruising out of Penang. She finished her deployment in Penang by the end of Dec 2010 and was refurbished in Singapore in Jan 2011. Her role in Penang was replaced by SuperStar Libra. Star Pisces also received hull art, being the first ship to feature hull art in the Star Cruises fleet. She will return to Hong Kong to offer daily high sea cruises beginning in late Feb 2011 to replace the SuperStar Aquarius, which will in turn be redeployed to Taiwan for the summer season. Star Pisces is scheduled to enter drydock for major renovation in February 2013. Her 1 night cruises will be replaced by SuperStar Aquarius during that period. Star Pisces is currently up for sale.
