These are repositioning sailings: one-way trips that exist because a ship is moving between seasons and the line would rather sell the crossing than sail it empty. This page reads Royal Caribbean's public cruise search once a day and lists every itinerary that starts or ends at Canada Place and touches Hawaii, with its departure date, its lead-in fare and the line's own list price beside it. Nothing here is typed in by hand, so when a fare moves or a sailing sells out, the page follows.

Other cruise lines' Hawaii itineraries, when they are on sale, are on the CruiseDirect Hawaii board.

What the route looks like

Honolulu and Waikiki seen from the rim of Diamond Head on Oahu
Where the crossing starts or ends

Honolulu, Oahu

Honolulu is the Hawaii end of every sailing here. Its airport is Daniel K. Inouye International (HNL), which is where the flight half of the trip begins or ends. The itineraries also list Kailua-Kona and Nāpali Coast (scenic cruising). Where an itinerary says scenic cruising, the ship sails past the coast and nobody goes ashore.

Count the stops against the nights and the shape of the trip is clear: a handful of Hawaii days at one end and open ocean for the rest. If you want a port every morning, an Alaska week is the better buy. If you want sea days, a balcony and no schedule, this is the itinerary built for it.

The one-way math

Every sailing on this page is one-way. Southbound you need a flight home from Honolulu. Northbound you need one out there first. Price that flight on the right dates before the cruise fare looks like a bargain, and leave a night between the ship and the plane: ships do dock late, and airlines do not wait.

The Vancouver end

Southbound, arrive the day before. Canada Place is downtown, so a hotel near the terminal turns boarding day into a short walk with your bags. Where to stay before you sail →

A taxi from YVR to Canada Place is a flat C$46 for the car, set by the airport's zone map (all YVR taxi zones). The Canada Line runs to Waterfront Station, next door to the terminal, for C$10.00 to C$11.60 per adult with a contactless card. The step-by-step version is in our YVR to cruise terminal guide.

Northbound, the ship ends at Canada Place. Check-in, luggage and what is inside the terminal are in the Canada Place port guide, and the trip out to the airport is covered in taxi fares back to YVR.

Passports and entry rules

Hawaii is a US state, so this is an international trip in both directions: a southbound sailing ends in the United States and a northbound one ends in Canada. Carry a valid passport and check the rules for your nationality with the cruise line and the official government sites before you pay. Travellers on the US Visa Waiver Program apply through the official ESTA site.
