Simont8 Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 We are booked on Spectrum of the Seas later this year on a short Japan cruise. Day 3 is docked in Kobe and day 4 just a short distance away in Osaka. Is there anything to stop us getting a train from Kobe to Kyoto, staying in Kyoto overnight and then rejoining in Osaka the following day? We would obviously need to notify the ship, but is there any general bar on doing this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrinkm Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 The Australia site seems to allow: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/aus/en/faq/questions/different-departure-port-city The US site does not: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/different-departure-port-city?country=USA The Australia site does have an email so I guess it doesn't hurt to ask, although my guess would be unlikely.

JeffB Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 Second the above response. Good idea but my guess is no. Had a similar circumstance on a recent west coast itinerary involving Seattle and Vancouver. We asked if we could debark in one port and re-embark at another. Pre-cruise, the request was entertained but the probably set response that we got a few days later was no. In our case it was because of in-country visa requirements. Visitors getting on and off a cruise ship for a day are treated differently than overnight travelers moving within or through the country. I still think you should inquire with RCL support teams (not reservations and booking). It's likely country dependent.
