Tourism to Honshu set to Rise with Cruise Stops, New Routes

---

Planet Honshu will welcome 4 cruise liners per month as PanGalactic Travel announces new cruising itineraries.

The Orbital Spa and Cruise subsidiary has recently unveiled it's 823 A.S itinerary, including destinations on Honshu, Los Angeles, Cambridge and Baden Baden.

PanGalactic will be partnering with Honshu based tour operator, Discover Shirahama to deliver budget holiday package deals.
Shirahama businesses are expressing their satisfaction with the increase in tourism forecasted to bring 8.2b per annum to the islands economy.

"With the efforts of the municipal authority, Shirahama has worked hard to be included on cruise companies' programs so that it can in turn promote the beauties of the oceanic planet" Said Discover Shirahama representative Kazuhiro Iijima. “We are making concentrated efforts to achieve the maximum possible tourist development of the island,” said Kazuhiro, adding that the strategy is now paying off, “thanks to the diversity of the island’s tourist product… the travel market is showing us its trust”.

Shirahama is Planet Honshu's southernmost island located at a latitude of 33° South. Whilst Planet Honshu is most known for its optronic factories, the temperate island is a holiday hotspot for Kishiro employees where the protected fish stocks have led to a large game fishing industry. Guests of PanGalactic will be able to enjoy all the highlights of the island – including charter fishing trips, traditional ryokan accommodation, fine Kusarian dining and the islands famed green sand beaches.

Donald Searsport, PanGalactic Director of Tourism praises the islands development, "Shirahama, and the Planet Honshu has a lot to offer to the culturally stranded middle class. PanGalactic looks forward to delivering the best of Kusari culture through its new partnership with Discover Shirahama."

Other operators on PanGalactic's new itinerary include; Exodus LA, TSH Cambridge and Baden Baden Spa & Cruise. A limited number of bookings have been opened for presale, with the general sale to proceed from the start of the month.
