When do cruise ships call at Vancouver?

How many cruise ships call at Vancouver each month?

Vancouver expects its most cruise ships in July 2027, with 80 calls and 144,610 lower berths of capacity. Each count is one ship in port on one day, from the cruise lines' itineraries as loaded on 28 September 2026. A month missing from the table has no scheduled calls at Vancouver.

Lower berths are beds sold at two per cabin, a measure of capacity; passengers on board usually run a little higher. Ships without a published capacity count as calls and add no berths. For capacity by port and month as a report, see Port Day, monthly cruise demand by port.

Which cruise ships call at Vancouver next?

The next cruise ship calls at Vancouver begin on 4 October 2026. Each row is one ship on one day, with arrival and departure times where the cruise line publishes them. An "est." mark flags a day placed by sailing distance rather than taken from the line's own itinerary, so treat it as a likely date.

Ship names link to the cruise on Cruiseable. Times are local, as the line publishes them; a dash means the line gives none. Full months: Oct 2026, Apr 2027, May 2027, Jun 2027, Jul 2027, Aug 2027.

How exact is the Vancouver cruise schedule?

Of the 371 cruise ship calls at Vancouver from October 2026 to September 2027, 100% fall on dates the cruise line publishes and 0% are estimated. Embarkation and disembarkation days are always exact. Estimated calls are placed by distance between ports and can be a day out.

Dates come from the cruise lines' own itineraries, loaded every Monday, not from the port authority, so a call can still move, be added or be cancelled. Checked against the schedule published by Cruise Line Agencies of Alaska on 2026-10-03: 100% of 360 compared calls fall on the same date, 100% within a day, and 0% are missing from ours.

This page combines 2 entries the cruise lines spell differently for the same place; where one names a separate berth or anchorage, that name appears under the ship.
