Cruising offers not only the option to be on the waves from port to port, but also the option to fly to a destination and then sail one way.
Cruises are taking bookings not only for 2025 but also for 2026.

Ponant is also offering a 16-day cruise from March 16 to March 22 from Fiji to Guam, including calls in Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and Chuuk.
Among ships visiting Guam in 2026 are the MS Amadea with 624 passengers on March 2, from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.
