Wavelet Posted February 1, 2021 #1 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Does anyone know when the 28 day Hawaii Tahiti rt LA will open up for 2022/2023? I realize with the pandemic, cruises are being altered or deleted as ships are sold/redeployed. I tried searching this board with no luck.

Amtrack Springfield Posted February 1, 2021 #2 Share Posted February 1, 2021 We took this cruise in 2017 on the Emerald Princess. We are also looking to see if they do this cruise again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare patrickmoran Posted February 1, 2021 #3 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) Hard to say if P will go back to Tahiti. Carnival just sold the Pacific Princess out from under P and gutted P's Tahiti season. Still some Tahiti cruises from Australia.

Tedferg Posted February 1, 2021 #4 Share Posted February 1, 2021 We have been looking at Sydney to SFO and Sydney to LA - April 2022 - they are shown on Princess website ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a 4 week RT San Pedro cruise which makes an overnight port stop in Tahiti and stops at other South Pacific islands. It has been very popular in the past. Hope it returns for 2023. I would expect these 2023 schedules to be published sometime this summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently booked on the 2022 Emerald Sydney to LA 27 day, but already fearful that NZ & OZ still wont be open this winter for cruising, with Princess canceling the entire 2022 Australian season. But just as hopeful if Princess would/does cancel the 2021- 2022 Emerald sailings in OZ that they'd instead be able to schedule a couple 28 day Rt-LA Tahiti- Hawaii sailings as a replacementi in 2022 (????)

Wavelet Posted February 1, 2021 Author #7 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Thank you Skynight. This was exactly the information I was looking for. I am hoping this cruise comes back for the 22/23 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted February 1, 2021 #8 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I am not sure if even the Island and the Coral can get thru the mutus on Bora Bora and Moorea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozecrooze Posted February 1, 2021 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Ordinarily, it would come out whenever the West Coast sailings are announced and those are some of the last to be released. I'd anticipate sometime in the next few months as I can only give a vague answer during these unpredictable times. But in my opinion, I'm speculating this route won't be coming back in the near future. I could very well be wrong so I'm not putting this out there as truth. But Princess has shed so many ships already and the ships they have left have been redeployed to more core markets to fill those gaps. So this 28-day much-loved itinerary is more niche, in my view, and harder to slot, lest they give up something more critical to their operations for weeks at a time (such as the 15-day Hawaiis or Panama Canals, for example). Just my 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi srpilo - you mention ‘Princess cancelling the entire 2022 Australian season’. I am not aware of this, can you please advise where you heard this, the Aus/NZ cruises are still up on their website. Thank you. Vicki. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the Princess Grand and Grand Plus ships fit in Bora Bora and Moorea. We have done the 28 day cruise on the Sapphire, Golden, Crown and Emerald (x3). What the larger ships probably can't do is the smaller Tahitian and Marquesas islands but since HALs Zuiderdam can do them I might be wrong. We are currently booked on the Zuiderdam stating Feb 22 for 35 day Hawaii, Tahiti and Marquesas R/T from San Diego. One small comment it is Motus not Mutus.

Unless there is something unique about those ships, they will not have an issue. The Emerald visited both ports as did the Celebrity Solstice. Of they are both tender ports anyway, but we were inside the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicki. 🙂 No, I mearly referenced that Scott Morrison the Australian PM said this week that due to the slow roll out of a vaccine in Australia that he doesn't see Australia opening to international visitors this year (2021) and that he doesn't expect a satisfactory level of vaccination in Australia (70%) until the very end of the year at which time he'll be willing to discuss opening of borders. So I just surmised that if Australia does indeed remained closed til at least the end of 2021, that Princess might need to cancel the 2021-2022 season... Crazy Times !! But Fingers Crossed it Doesn't 🙃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been to Tahiti, Moorea and Bora Bora on Grand Class ships. No Issues. Bora Bora and Moorea are tender ports. Bora Bora has a deep water lagoon. What is a "mutus?"

The sailing got cancelled early because Carnival transferred Star to P&O earlier than originally scheduled. So, since Star was a Gran Class ship, Princess ought to be able to do another 28 day with another Grand Class ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenie082756 Posted February 2, 2021 #16 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I sure hope they put this back in for 2022. If not, then hopefully 2023. This is the cruise that will be our "retirement cruise" . Crossing fingers it comes back. I feel we have waited and it would disappoint me not to get to do it. Worse scenario we could most likely find another line that would have that itinerary. HAL?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at that sailing and could only get guarantee booking for what I wanted. I didn't want the drama trying to get where I wanted onboard... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
