Shorter 3- to 5-night trips will begin in October 2026, with amazing itineraries such as the 4-night Penang and Phuket cruise. If guests seek a slightly longer trip, they can choose a slightly different itinerary for 5 nights, which includes an added-on stopover at one of Malaysia’s most scenic islands.

Ten-night journeys are also available, with the Thailand and Vietnam cruise visiting bustling cities such as Ho Chi Minh City and Bangkok. 

In February 2027, the longer itineraries will be available, with 11- and 12-night holidays from Singapore and Tokyo. These sailings will visit a variety of in-demand destinations, such as Hong Kong, Nagasaki, and Taipei.
