Royal Caribbean has brought Navigator of the Seas to Singapore for the first time, opening a new season of Asia sailings from one convenient homeport. The ship will be based there through October 2027, giving travelers a fresh way to explore Southeast Asia and beyond without juggling multiple starting points.
Short on time? The lineup leans into flexibility. Guests can choose two- to five-night getaways to Penang and Langkawi in Malaysia and Phuket in Thailand — perfect for a first taste of the region or a quick escape paired with a Singapore stay. For travelers who want to go deeper, a 10-night option heads to Thailand and Vietnam, with calls in Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang plus an overnight in Bangkok.
There are longer adventures, too. Twelve-night journeys between Singapore and Tokyo add stops across Japan, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, making it easy to combine several iconic cities in a single trip. The Singapore season is part of Royal Caribbean’s wider 2027-28 Asia-Pacific plans, with more ships scheduled for Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Brisbane, and Sydney in the months that follow.
