Navigating Japan cruise customs is a major step after a long Transpacific Cruise. We show you what the arrival process is really like. 🎥 18 Nights on a Carnival Ship: Was it Too Many Sea Days?: https://youtu.be/9409KXgRnUE We are documenting our arrival in Otaru, Japan, aboard the Carnival Panorama. After days at sea, arriving in a new country requires specific preparation to ensure everything goes smoothly. We walk you through the port experience so you know what to expect when your ship finally docks. This Trans-Pacific cruise has been a long haul from California, and the final step of clearing immigration is critical. By sharing our experience with the cruise arrival process, we hope to demystify the paperwork and procedures needed to step off the ship and start exploring.
