Rare jimbo5544 Posted August 22 #1 Share Posted August 22 Was not all that long ago, this would have only appeared as an April Fools post. Would be a super interesting cruise to be on, not for the feint of heart for those not interested in sea days. https://cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/2024/08/carnival-panorama-sets-sail-on-18-night-cruise-to-japan/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I remember when I was looking at it, there were two real issues (other than the number of days. The first was the cost of flights tog et home. The second and even bigger one was, hell hey we are half way around the world, I want to stay and do more since I would already be there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsglow Posted August 22 #6 Share Posted August 22 When the two tran-Pacs were originally announced they were very reasonably priced. I believe this was still back in the 'late-Covid' period and Carnival wasn't quite so sure how well they would sell. I mean... it was still expensive but on a per cabin, per day basis, not so much.

Rare notscb Posted August 22 #8 Share Posted August 22 (edited) I remember seeing this cruise posted and realized that it's my ideal itinerary. Forced relaxation days coupled with Alaska and Japanese ports-of-call sounds absolutely amazing. The price wasn't that bad either, I'm excited to read @CoffeeGoddess account of the journey!

atakkat Posted August 23 #9 Share Posted August 23 My sweet hubby is on this cruise with his father. The number of time changes is quite interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlawrence01 Posted August 23 #10 Share Posted August 23 Just a reminder. Carnival Panorama leaves Singapore for Los Angeles on Oct 12 on a 25 night cruise and is currently priced at $46 pppd. There are five stops: Vietnam, Manila, Malaysia, Guam, and Hawaii and 19 sea days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I got an offer to go to Vietnam it was for free….from the government. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem now would be airfare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crzndeb Posted August 23 #15 Share Posted August 23 I will be on the Panorama coming back to US in Oct. Had it not been for dry dock in between going over and coming back, I probably would have done both. I took the Splendor over to Singapore in 2019, and loved it, so I know what to expect. I’m also on the Anthem OTS next April on a B2B from Singapore- Yokohama and then to Seattle, which is my home. That one will go to Japanese ports I have never been to. Singapore is one of my favorite cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt082600 Posted August 23 #16 Share Posted August 23 Not to sound like a moron, but do the bunker more fuel during the 8 days at sea? Seems like a long distance without refueling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About $600 out of Chicago. Maybe less if you use a consolidator. Some of the consolidators, especially ou tof Manila include two free bags per person. 1 hour ago, crzndeb said: I will be on the Panorama coming back to US in Oct.

Singapore is one of my favorite cities. We did a Mexican Riviera cruise on the Splendor a couple of months prior to its relocation to Singapore. We were within a week of booking that cruise when my nephew announced that he was getting married during that time. I think that cruise lasted longer than the marriage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
