See here all Alaskan repositioning cruises to and from Vancouver BC Canada 2025-2026 ship relocation specials. We list here all departures and arrivals of passenger ships offering Vancouver repositioning cruise deals. They all are with one-way itineraries due to destination changes.
Vancouver relocation cruises signify deals on ships arriving at or departing from Vancouver BC (Canada). All these ships will be changing their operational regions to sail in places different than Alaska for the next several months. The list of changes associated with these special one-way deals includes:
- TRANSPACIFIC relocation of ships leaving from Alaska to Hawaii and Australia, or to Asia (Japan and China) – in Fall, and the reverse in Spring.
- Panama Canal transition cruises on ships leaving from Alaska to California and/or Florida ports, also to NOLA/New Orleans, and Texas (Houston and Galveston) in Fall. The reverse routes are operated in Spring.
- Ships sailing on short voyages in Alaska. Repositioning cruise Seattle to Vancouver deals are offered during early Fall each year.
Repositioning Cruises to/from Vancouver BC
The shortest and most cheap of all Vancouver repositioning cruises are the Spring deals on ships leaving out of Vancouver to Seattle, and Fall deals on the reverse route – departing from Seattle to Vancouver. The reason for this short transition is that some ships operate during Summer Alaskan cruises leaving from Vancouver BC, while the rest operate in Alaska leaving out of Seattle WA.
The longer itineraries are on repositioning cruises from Vancouver to Australia and the Panama Canal transition to the Caribbean (disembarkation in USA ports). Another set of “Alaska short breaks” includes the so-called “Pacific Coastal Cruises”. They are operated by ships leaving from or arriving in California ports, respectively to and from Vancouver, Canada.
All ship relocation cruises to and from Vancouver BC could be perfectly combined with cheap Alaska fly-cruise deals. While most of the flight packages are offered during the active Summer season, the low-season deals offer discounted air on regular flights to and from Alaska. Major US airports will give you flight rates which are simply irresistible if you choose the early Spring or Fall for your Alaska cruise vacation to or from Vancouver.
Offered also as low-season discount specials, Alaskan “cruise and stay” packages in Spring are another “budget price” option to enjoy this amazing region during the “ships repositioning” times each year.
