Applications will be accepted through the dedicated form on the website, by phone, or by email until October 26; if there are more applicants than available spots, a lottery will be held.
There are five types of staterooms available: A Asuka Suite, C Suite, D Balcony, E Balcony, and F State. Each is available at a 25% discount off the regular rate.
