Region

Asia

A broad region spanning Southeast Asia, China, Japan, and Korea, plus Sri Lanka (Colombo), which is mostly visited on long one-way voyages and world-cruise segments — itineraries vary hugely by country, so always confirm which countries/ports are actually on the guest's specific cruise.

Best season
Nov-Apr for Southeast Asia (dry season); Mar-May & Sep-Nov for Japan/Northeast Asia
Typical length
7-14+ nights typical

Asia is not one climate/season — Southeast Asia (Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam) is best Nov-Apr, while Japan/Korea are best in spring or fall; don't apply one season rule across the whole region.

Visa requirements vary a lot by nationality and country here — always advise guests to check current visa rules for each port country well before final payment.
