Rare cr8tiv1 Posted November 18, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 18, 2022 My sister just sent me this link. https://www.travelandleisure.com/japan-cruise-ships-return-6830107 If you don't want to read the entire article: "It was not immediately clear exactly when the ban would officially lift, but a Japanese ship sailing from Yokohama in December will be among the first."

Cathygh Posted November 18, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 18, 2022 We booked a Japan cruise with Celebrity for March 23, which was moved by them to March 24 many months ago. As fas as I can tell the only lines selling Japan cruises for 22-23 are Princess and Cunard and all other lines were cancelled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted November 20, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 20, 2022 My husband would love to do an Asian cruise, but I want to wait until they’ve been running them for a while to make sure that they stick and go smoothly. Hopefully they do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ferry_Watcher Posted November 21, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Japan opened to land travel October 2022. We spent an amazing two weeks there. The Japanese are still wearing mask both inside and outside, and we did as well while we were there. It is such a beautiful country - well worth the wait. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Japanese nationals and tourists have always worn masks pre/post pandemic. They are very cautious people. Glad you were able to do a land tour. They are trickling back to Hawaii. There is a shortage of Yen in the islands. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare fpsphil Posted November 21, 2022 #7 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Really want to do a Japan cruise at some point. If for some reason the season gets pushed though I would no be opposed to hopping on one of the 7 day mini sea of Cortez runs it is doing right now. Timing just does t work out with our Discovery Princess cruise in January. Would need one in March timeframe to work with time off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDVM96 Posted November 21, 2022 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2022 The five 2024 west coast voyages on the Diamond (3x Hawaii and 2x Mexican Riviera) which were bookable have now been cancelled. So maybe the ship will stay in Japan instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
