Upcoming ports

Calls published by the ports themselves. ASUKA2 is matched to these schedules by name, not by IMO number, so treat each call as a possible match. Linked by name (the only passenger ship we know by that name), not by IMO number. The port publishes names only, so this may be a different ship.

Timeline

Dated events for this ship from every source Voydar holds, newest first. Each line names its source; derived items say how they were derived.

Owner, operator and manager changes found by comparing yearly EU MRV reports are dated to the reporting year ("during 2025"), not to a day. Port calls here are the most recent only; the full lists are further down.

Emissions & fuel consumption

Independently verified annual figures reported under the EU MRV regulation — public environmental data the incumbents don't surface.

Technical efficiency: EIV (126.94 gCO₂/t·nm). Source: European Commission / EMSA THETIS-MRV (EU Regulation 2015/757). Covers voyages to, from and within the EU/EEA.

Port calls

Two kinds of evidence, kept apart: calls Voydar detected from the ship's AIS positions, and arrivals and departures published by port authorities and customs records.
