Special note for Mandalay - Bagan cruise - daily cruise (5 May 2009).

2008 and 2009 have been bad tourist season, so much that most of the cruise between Mandalay and Bagan (the daily cruise) have been cancelled. At today, we are not sure when the daily cruise between Mandalay and Bagan will resume. It is very probable that the daily cruise resume 1st October but nothing is sure at today (5 May 2009).
For the rainy season (now until 1st October), it is probable that the daily cruise between Mandalay and Bagan will not resume, but it depends how many tourist will be in Myanmar during the coming summer.
In any case, double check with a travel agent if you plan to take the daily cruise between Mandalay and Bagan (Malikha boat).
