Itineraries and Destinations for Princess Cruise Line

Princess Cruises is big. A lot of people don’t know about this, in fact, but they rank amongst the top 5 biggest cruise lines in the world, behind huge names like Royal Caribbean and Carnival Cruise Line.

Princess is present basically all over the globe, with a lot of itineraries in Europe, Asia (Japan is pretty popular with them) and North America. In fact, they are one of the biggest names when it comes to traveling to Alaska. Do you want to check some polar bears and ice glaciers? You should talk to these guys then!

It’s safe to say that Princess has something for everyone when it comes to Alaska.

Want a short trip to see whales from afar? They have that. Looking for a more intimate experience and a month spent in the chilly North? They offer that too. In fact, Princess even owns lodges in Alaska, as well as tourist trains and buses.

Do keep in mind that the Alaska season is short, and typically ranges from May to September. If you want to visit Alaska, you should definitely book way in advance.

Are you looking for a different cruise opportunity? Well, Princess Cruises is increasing their presence in Japan year by year. Nowadays, they offer more than 40 different cruises in the Land of the Rising Sun! So, if you are planning to visit Japan to check out some videogames and anime, why not stay a while longer and try a cruise all over the island?

Cruises in Japan always depart from Yokohama, but there are also world cruises that leave from Seattle and arrive in Japan after 15 days. Cruises that start and end in Yokohama usually last 9 nights and complete a full circuit around the island, offering an exceptional experience.

Europe is one of the main destinations for Princess Cruises, with nearly 250 different itineraries from 2024 to 2026. If you’re traveling with a large group of friends or your entire family, you might opt for a cruise with Royal Caribbean or MSC Cruise Line. However, if you’re traveling with just your significant other, I’d certainly recommend giving Princess Cruises a try.

The main ports of departure in Europe are:

  • Southampton, England
  • Copenhagen, Denmark
  • Barcelona, Spain
  • Rome, Italy
  • Athens, Greece

Every major cruise line offers Caribbean cruises, and Princess Cruises is no exception. In fact, they offer about 230 different itineraries around the Caribbean and Bahamas from 2024 to 2026, with very affordable prices. For example, in our simulation, we selected a long 7-night cruise aboard one of their top ships and found a great price. You might even pay less if you choose a different ship.

Princess Cays

Princess Cays is Princess Cruise Line’s private port of call in the Bahamas. This is a private location that is all about a cozy beach and for you to relax. You won’t find any crazy waterparks or attractions like you’d find on Royal Caribbean’s CocoCay, since Princess Cruises is all about an older audience and relaxing.

Princess Cays is all about a relaxing beach day. The beach is pleasant, and you can rent a clamshell for shade if you like. The water is clear and calm, but there isn’t anything particularly special about it. However, sometimes a cozy day at the beach is all you need.

You can try some extra, paid activities, including:

  • Stingray Encounter
  • Private & Sanctuary Bungalows
  • Snorkeling
  • Banana Boat Ride
  • Fishing
