Nancy&Frank Posted May 26 #1 Share Posted May 26 Was wondering if HAL is considering bringing this Grand Voyage back anytime soon ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandiego1 Posted May 27 #2 Share Posted May 27 We heard a rumor that there may be one in Sep/Oct 2026. We have a future cruise request with HAL and paid the deposit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rumor is that it will leave from the West coast. We are hoping for San Diego (for obvious reasons 😀). I suggest you call the HAL World Cruise desk and submit a FCR. It was only $200 and is fully refundable. Then you will be notified automatically. Don’t call the regular HAL #. They don’t know how to do a FCR. Only the WC desk knows about it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the Zaandam is likely to be in Alaska the summer of '26 (is for '25), my guess is that it will leave from Vancouver and end in San Diego. Fingers crossed for fall of '26, as this would replace the 56-day Vancouver to San Diego Tales of the South Pacific (Zaandam is doing this in '25). Has anyone heard recent comments from an FCC about Grand Asia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sambamama Posted August 26 #8 Share Posted August 26 That would be a shame as the South Pacific, IMHO, would be much more fun. My20 night RT South Pacific cruise was the best cruise I've ever taken by far!!! , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one of the best parts of those cruises. Sandiego 1- from where/whom did this rumor emanate? We should be hearing fairly soon if a fall '26 Grand Asia is planned. Maybe a call to the World Desk is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It most likely would be taken over by another HAL ship. The itinerary is duplicated every year and, frequently, twice a year. We are booked on the 50-day New Zealand, Australia, S. Pacific in March, 2026, but will cancel in a heartbeat if the Grand Asia is returning in the fall of '26. The ship has to depart and return via the Pacific, and one direction it would likely sail through the S. Pacific. We had a wonderful time on the 89-day 2018 Grand Asia and would love the opportunity to sail it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
