Here is link: https://indd.adobe.com/view/c9d06b79-07af-4d0b-bec6-67622fc6286dI know Ngaire has a group to Japan in 2023 but thinking about a Tokyo round trip followed possibly by Tokyo to Vancouver in 2024. Anyone else interested? Grandeur slated to arrive 4Q2023 but not included in this brochure. The Sydney to Papeete on Navigator also looks interesting; more pacific islands along with lots of snorkeling.

That's exactly the combo we are looking for in '24. Still trying to make up for the lost Asian Grand Voyage earlier this year. '22 all booked and we are also on the 23 WC so Asia in '24 sounds awesome.

We would be interested in that itinerary, but in the other direction. The Explorer has a Vancouver to Tokyo in September 2023 followed by a Tokyo round trip. I prefer gaining time instead of losing an hour every day (and yes you cross the dateline and lose a whole day but the time of day stays the same). Looking forward to traveling again!

We were hoping for Cherry blossoms in Japan in April. Otherwise I agree with you about the time change.

Good point! And Sakura is beautiful…i have been fortunate to see it twice but I was there for work and did not have any time outside of Tokyo. The 2024 is towards the end of the season in Tokyo……could come in early to maximize viewing potential.

Definitely interested in Asia 2024. We were supposed to do similar itinerary in 2021, and also spring of 2022 - both cancelled! Any idea when bookings would open?

Thanks, prices atrocious and air credits have decreased; not surprised; but we are still on the list to be booked when they open.  edited to correct: Given that 24 trip is two days longer than 23 trip the difference in per diem is minuscule. further edited to correct: Cruise is actually 31 nights (minus eight hours of time changes) versus the 30 nights that Regent shows; add a day when crossing the international date line.

Jim Us too, although I think we will board on March 18, and do 2 Tokyo to Tokyo B2B2, and then Tokyo to Vancouver. There are 4 repeat ports on March 18 and April 1 itineraries, but we have never seen Shanghai, so we want to do that, and it is only offered on the March 18 segment.

There are some good ones there.
Think Jan and my number one pick is March 28th 2023 14 night Tokyo to Tokyo.
Never been on Silver Seas Cruise Line but the one that looked interesting is Silver Cloud 2023 May 3rd 12 day Jeddah to Athens.

YES, nothing changed in 2022 except some new cruises early 2022. But everything that has been published in 2022 is a go. What everyone is talking about now is the new release fr 2023 and 2024 that opens for bookings on August 28, 2021. Just less than a week from now.

Jim, I may be cancelling the Jeddah to Athens cruise. I have an issue come up and the dates wont work now. I will know in about 3 days what will happen if I can or cannot go forward with that. So I am not taking and reservations for that cruise now until this clears up. Hope to do a Black Sea cruise on the Voyager instead on May 14 - 26 followed by a 3 day Cappadocia but that is also still not confirmed.

We are also got our suite on the Explorer April 2024 Tokyo-Tokyo-Vancouver B2B. Looking forward to it.
I’m still trying to get Stacy to go to the Amazon but she is also not a fan of travel to Brazil, so we will have to see about that. Although I think it sounds great!

Good for you guys! I haven't received confirmation on our booking yet, but hopefully we will see you both on the Tokyo cruise! EDIT: Got it! It's a go!!  Our third time to book this itinerary - hopefully the third time will be the charm and this one won't get cancelled!!  We are going to get on on March 18 and cruise all the way to Vancouver.

Unfortunately that won’t happen. I requested this cruise and was denied. Really wanted to do this as it has been a long time since we have done this cruise. We would really have loved to be with all of you on this cruise.
