Beginning in October 2026, Navigator will offer a year-round lineup of two- to five-night sailings to some of Southeast Asia’s most sought-after destinations in Vietnam, Malaysia and Thailand, along with a 12-night sailing from Tokyo to Singapore. The extended Singapore season includes short escapes to Penang and Kuala Lumpur (Port Klang) in Malaysia, as well as Phuket, Thailand.

“We’re excited to give vacationers even more opportunities to experience Navigator of the Seas from Singapore,” said Royal Caribbean President of Greater China and Managing Director Asia

Ben Bouldin. “From long weekend escapes to memorable family vacations, travellers can now enjoy a full year of adventures from one of Asia’s most ideal cruise gateways.”

With convenient air connectivity from major cities across Asia and beyond, Singapore continues to serve as one of the region’s leading fly-cruise hubs, providing an ideal gateway for vacationers exploring the region with Royal Caribbean.

“Royal Caribbean’s decision to extend Navigator of the Seas from a six-month seasonal deployment to a year-round homeport reflects their continued confidence in Singapore as a leading cruise hub in Asia,” said  Singapore Tourism Board Director, Cruise Chitra Rajesh Kumar. “The extension is testament to Singapore’s long-standing partnership with Royal Caribbean and offers visitors opportunities to discover Singapore’s vibrant city experiences and explore the rich diversity of Southeast Asia, all within the same cruise holiday.”

Bookings for the extended Singapore season are open from 19 August, with Voyager of the Seas Asia-Pacific sailings on sale from 26 August.
