Chinese cruise operators are scrambling to avoid Japanese ports as Beijing and Tokyo engage in a diplomatic dispute, which is expected to spur demand for tourism in South Korea, according to sources and cruise schedules.<\/p>\n

Tour and port agents said tensions, sparked by recent remarks from Japan\u2019s new prime minister<\/span>, Sanae Takaichi, could cause Chinese tourists to be redirected to South Korea from Japan. Earlier this month, Takaichi told Japanese lawmakers that a Chinese attack on Taiwan threatening Japan\u2019s survival could trigger a military response.<\/div>\n

Adora Magic City, a Chinese cruise ship that travels to South Korea\u2019s touristy Jeju Island as well as Japan, has changed its schedule for December to avoid stopping at the Japanese ports of Fukuoka, Sasebo and Nagasaki as planned, according to a notice posted on the government website of South Korea\u2019s Jeju province.<\/p>\n

The cruise ship will instead spend 31 to 57 hours in Jeju, longer than its usual schedule of nine hours, the notice said.<\/p>\n
