Navigator of the Seas Moves 2027 Turnaround From Yokohama to Tokyo

Tokyo International Cruise Terminal in Aomi is about 20 miles from Daikoku Pier and closer to downtown; the Singapore-bound departure moves to 4:30 p.m.

Royal Caribbean International has changed the Voyager-class Navigator of the Seas’ February 25, 2027 turnaround port from Yokohama’s Daikoku Pier to Tokyo International Cruise Terminal, affecting two one-way cruises between Singapore and Japan. The Singapore-bound departure will also leave at 4:30 p.m., half an hour earlier than originally scheduled.

The terminal switch affects passengers departing Singapore on February 13 and disembarking in Japan, as well as guests boarding for the return voyage. Royal Caribbean has notified both groups, which will now use a terminal in a different city within the same metropolitan area.

In its guest notices, Royal Caribbean attributed the move to “port availability” but did not explain the specific constraint at the originally scheduled terminal. No other cruise ships are currently scheduled at Daikoku Pier on the turnaround date, and Navigator of the Seas is the only cruise ship scheduled at the Tokyo terminal.

The Japan-bound sailing will retain its planned arrival time of 5:30 a.m. Otherwise, the itineraries and schedules are unchanged.

Tokyo International Cruise Terminal is in Aomi, farther north and closer to downtown Tokyo than Daikoku Pier Cruise Terminal in Yokohama’s Tsurumi Ward. The two terminals are roughly 20 miles apart, about a 30-minute drive depending on traffic.

Nagasaki, Kumamoto and Kagoshima remain on the Japan-bound itinerary, along with Hong Kong and Taipei. The return cruise will call at Nagoya, Osaka, Okinawa, Ishigaki and Hong Kong before reaching Singapore.
