Thatcher Brown has done a lot for Dream Cruises, and the last thing Genting wants to do at this time is appoint a successor who will make waves. Michael Goh is a perfect fit.
After four years of leading the launch and growth of Dream Cruises and Crystal Cruises Asia, Thatcher Brown has resigned, citing “personal family reasons.”
Michael Goh, a loyal Genting Hong Kong executive, has succeeded Brown as president of Dream Cruises. Goh has also been named head of international sales for Genting Cruise Lines, which comprises Dream Cruises, Crystal Cruises, and Star Cruises.
Goh’s appointment won’t rock the boat; he worked alongside Brown in positioning Dream Cruises as Asia’s first luxury cruise line, complementing Brown’s expertise in luxury hospitality operations with his sales horsepower and deep connections with the Asian travel trade.
