Singapore Cruises, Kansas City–San Juan Flights and Caribbean Deals in Focus
Royal Caribbean starts Singapore sailings in Oct 2026, Southwest adds a Puerto Rico route in 2027, and Caribbean cruises start at $359.
Royal Caribbean's Navigator of the Seas is set to begin sailing from Singapore on 29 October 2026. According to Travel and Tour World, the cruise line has planned three-, four- and five-night trips. These connect Singapore with places such as Penang, Langkawi and Phuket.
Travel and Tour World also points out that time in port is not the same as time to visit sights. It says some Malaysian heritage attractions have limited opening hours, so travelers should check these against the ship's schedule.
In the Caribbean, Travel Pirates picked out cruises of five to seven nights that visit Belize, Roatán Island, the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos. It says prices begin at $359 per person and cover dates in fall, winter and spring.
AirlineGeeks says that in June 2027, Southwest plans to launch a direct flight linking Kansas City with San Juan in Puerto Rico. Flights will run once a week, on Saturdays. Officials who oversee air travel in Kansas City stated that, until now, travelers could not fly directly between these two cities.
