I'd look in my sofa too, but with my luck I'll just find a missing bill int here and no change. 🤦♂️ I LOVE Symphony's Japan itineraries though! 36 minutes ago, juicyjuju said: Yes I would love to know where Symphony is going when it leaves Tokyo At least we have some idea from the outline.

On the summary they issued for June it showed Japan and Alaska. It appears that it will be a long one ending in July which is why I think they didn't show it.

I was curious about the Japan itineraries, but I wasn't expecting to like them so much... But I still need to know what the rest of 2026 looks like before I can commit to anything mentally (I think). I'm so excited to have access to Symphony again, so I don't have to suffer with Serenity anymore. 😄. (Joking/Not Joking. haha) Vince 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctjon Posted August 27 #58 Share Posted August 27 Symphony did a great Japan to Alaska cruise in 2019 - interesting to see how similar new one might be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Tillie Posted August 27 #59 Share Posted August 27 The last segment of the 2016 World Cruise on Serenity was Japan to San Francisco including Alaska. Dutch Harbor and Kodiak were included. Patty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare RLK33853 Posted August 27 #63 Share Posted August 27 Just booked an Aquamarine on Serenity from Los Angeles to Auckland in January, 2026 - six cabins were available and we put one on hold while we decided. Fast forward 30 minutes and the other 5 were gone. The Crystal rep told our travel agent that bookings are very busy today. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machotspur Posted August 28 #67 Share Posted August 28 Hi - a potential Crystal 'newbie' here - having spent our cruising life with Silversea/Seabourn & Regent. We/re sold on the 'new Crystal' product and have been waiting impatiently for yesterday's release of the (Part 1) 2026 Itineraries. Having been looking for a decent Japan circumnavigation itinerary on other cruise lines we were pleased to see the options available from Crystal yesterday. As a result we have taken an option this morning on a 23 day Tokyo - Tokyo itinerary, which we believe is the most interesting we have seen in the past couple of years. As has been said above there are lots of ports of call that we've never heard of. Having travelled in Japan previously this is great news. So - a long time to wait but hopefully we're heading for our first Crystal cruise 😊 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCAdventurer Posted August 28 #68 Share Posted August 28 i'm very interested in the Manila to Seoul cruise on symphony. Stopping in Hong Kong, Shanghai and some other Chinese ports seem interesting to me and I've never been to South Korea. But I've also circled four other cruises too. The cruises around Japan seem very interesting to me too. Too many decisions and definitely not enough change between the cushions on the couch! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
