China-Japan Ferry

Hi there, I’m planning to visit Japan in May this year, and I’d love to try doing it without taking a flight. I’m currently in Vietnam, and my plan is to travel to Shanghai and then take a ferry to Osaka. I can’t find any clear info online about whether this is still possible. Most links mention a weekly departure, but when I check the company’s website, it says passenger transport is suspended.

If any of you have more recent info, I’d really appreciate it!

Have a great day! 😊

Hi,

I don’t know about Shanghai–Osaka, but you can do it in two legs: China–South Korea, then Busan–Osaka.

You can find info on these two sites: https://www.rome2rio.com/fr/map/Chine/Cor%C3%A9e-du-Sud#r/Train-ferry-subway-via-Weihai https://www.panstarcruise.com/
