While many cruises only involve a couple of days at sea, a popular offering from Royal Caribbean Line (RCL) takes guests across the mighty Pacific to truly tropical shores.
Hawaii also offers a range of natural gems to explore on each of the islands as well as many places to dine, shop, and catch live shows. From the Mauna Kea Summit to the massive, approachable populations of manta rays, the rich history of Lahaina to the stunning Waikiki Beach, the islands ooze tropical beauty.
Vancouverites looking to travel to the Hawaiian Islands without boarding a plane have the option to sail on one of the biggest ships at sea this fall at a steal.
Soaring a whopping 18 decks high, the is one of the Royal Caribbean's most impressive and largest ships.
The statuesque ship offers everything from casual bites to elevated, high-end dining experiences. There are even robotic bartenders at the Bionic Bar.
Also known for its impressive entertainment and extensive family-friendly activities, there's no shortage of things to do on board. There's complimentary, glow-in-the-dark laser tag for kids, a skydiving simulator, bumper cars at sea, a roller rink, a surf simulator, and a trapeze school.
Guests can also soak in the most breathtaking perspective at sea from the North Star — the highest vantage point on any cruise ship.
The cruise departs Canada Place cruise terminal on Oct. 6, 2023 and spends five days at sea before stopping for an overnight in Lahaina, Maui. After that, the cruise makes a stop on the Napali Coast in Kauai before making its final stop in Honolulu, Oahu on Oct. 15.
