Royal Caribbean Plans Japan Cherry Blossom Cruises for 2028

Voyager of the Seas will sail a collection of Japan-focused itineraries from late February through April 2028.

The reported schedule listed cruise calls across Friday, Saturday and Sunday during the first weekend of October.

The updated gift depicts the Disney Destiny’s Spider-Man-themed stern but does not include the Disney Adventure.

The ship will emphasize four- and five-day Mexico itineraries while retaining several longer sailings.
