Hawaii Cruise Vacation
Written by Vacation Idea.com Travel Editors.
Visiting Hawaii on a cruise ship has its advantages. First of all, you can visit several Hawaiian islands in a short period of time. Secondly, it means unpacking and packing your bags only once.
Several major cuise lines visit the Hawaiian islands on their journeys, however, Norwegian Star is the only seven-day round-trip Hawaiian ship to include the four main islands, Oahu, Hawaii, Maui and Kauai. The reason for this is an old U.S. law that requires foreign-registered vessels to visit a foreign country or a distant port if it is allowed to pick up and drop off passengers at a U.S. port.
Norwegian Star is a modern 2,200-passenger cruise ship which sails 7-day round trip Hawaii cruise cacation itineraries from Honolulu. In addition to the stops on the main islands of Hawaii, at also visits a remote port on Fanning Island. The ship departs weekly.
NCL announced that is will be adding the brand-new Pride of America to its Hawaii fleet on July 23, 2005.
Royal Caribbean Cruise Line offers eleven and 12-day Hawaii cruise vacations. The 10-night Hawaii cruise vacation on the Legend Of The Seas departs from Ensenada, Mexico.
