About this site
Compiled and maintained by Andrew Budai, cruise enthusiast. Schedule last updated .
HonoluluCruiseSchedule is an independent schedule of cruises leaving Honolulu Harbor. It lists 125 sailings on 9 ships from 5 cruise lines, from November 2026 to October 2028.
We don't sell cruises. There is no booking engine, account or newsletter here. When you find a sailing you like, we send you to the cruise line to check the price and book.
Who runs this site
Andrew Budai compiles and maintains HonoluluCruiseSchedule. He is an experienced webmaster with more than 10 years in SEO and digital advertising, and he has been building his own websites for the past year. He wants this site to be genuinely helpful and also profitable. He is not a travel agent, and the schedule comes from the sources listed below, not from personal experience.
How the schedule is put together
Each sailing is built from two sources, each used for what it does best:
- Cruisebound, a cruise retailer, publishes every sailing it sells from Honolulu, with today's fare. Each sailing's own page gives the day-by-day itinerary, and that is where our ports of call come from.
- The State of Hawaii's Harbors Division keeps the berth schedule for Honolulu Harbor on Hawaii.PortCall.com: every cruise ship due, with its arrival and departure times and the pier it has asked for. We check every sailing against it, and it is the only place our terminals come from. The same schedule covers Kahului, Hilo, Kona and Nawiliwili, so we check each Hawaii stop of a sailing against it too. Berths can change, so your cruise documents have the final word.
- If we can't confirm the ports of call, the sailing is left out. We would rather show fewer cruises than show one with gaps. If the two sources disagree, the sailing stays on the site and is marked, so you can check it with the line.
We never work out a terminal from the cruise line. A ship can be booked at Pier 2 one week and at the Aloha Tower piers the next, so we go by the state's schedule for each date.
Ships that only call in Honolulu partway through a voyage are not departures. They, and the lines Cruisebound doesn't sell from here, appear on the ship schedule, which shows every cruise ship on the state's schedule with its times and pier.
How sure we are
As of 2026-11-14:
| Status | Sailings | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Confirmed | 98 | The ship is on the state's schedule in Honolulu on the day it sails, and its Hawaii stops match the state's schedule for those ports. |
| Single source | 26 | Cruisebound sells it, but it leaves after the last day the state's schedule covers. Check these with the line. |
| Sources disagree | 1 | The state's schedule doesn't show this ship on that day, or puts it at a different Hawaii port on one of the days. Marked in the tables, and worth checking with the line. |
We record which ports a sailing visits. The order and the times in port can change, so check the line's day-by-day itinerary if that matters to you.
About the fares
A fare here is a starting price per person in US dollars, for the cheapest cabin listed, with taxes and port fees included. 124 of the 125 sailings have one. Each fare shows the date we checked it.
These are not live quotes. Cruise prices move every day, so treat a fare as a way to compare one sailing with another, then get the real price from the line. Where we have no fare, the table says "check prices" instead of guessing.
Keeping it current
Fares and the state's schedule are read every day and the site is rebuilt afterwards. Sailings drop off automatically once they have left. The date of the last update is at the top of every listing and in the footer.
Download the schedule
The whole schedule is available as a file, one row per sailing, rebuilt every morning with the site: CSV for a spreadsheet, or JSON. Each row gives the departure and return dates, nights, ship, line, itinerary, region, ports of call, the starting fare and the date it was read, whether a second source lists it, and the page that covers it. You are welcome to use and quote it, with a link back to this site. You can also put a live list of sailings on your own site with our schedule widget.
Sources
- Cruisebound: which sailings are on sale, their ports of call, and fares.
- State of Hawaii, Harbors Division cruise schedule (Hawaii.PortCall.com): the official berth calendar of which ship is in Honolulu Harbor on which day, its scheduled times and its pier, used to confirm each sailing and name its terminal, and of which ship is at Kahului, Hilo, Kona and Nawiliwili, used to check each Hawaii stop.
The planning guides list their own sources, mostly Honolulu Harbor and the operators each guide covers.
Independence
This site is not affiliated with Honolulu Harbor or with any cruise line. Most fare buttons go to Cruisebound, a cruise booking site. We may earn a commission if you book through them. The affiliate disclosure explains how that works. The commission does not change which sailings we list or the order they appear in.
When something is wrong
Cruise lines change schedules often, and a list like this can fall behind between updates. The cruise line is always the final word on dates, ports and prices.
