Pacific Crossing – Hilo & Kona

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 10 nights from Vancouver on September 18, 2026, visiting Hilo, Kailua-Kona and Honolulu. You finish in Honolulu. The first couple of days are at sea, which gives you time to settle in and get to know the ship before the ports begin. Each island feels different: Maui's beaches, the Big Island's lava fields, Kauai's cliffs. Most ports give you about 15 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on Celebrity Edge. 7 restaurants come with the fare, plus 7 more when you feel like treating yourself. 10 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
