From Cruise Weekly: https://cruiseweekly.com.au/news/cw-breaking-news-discovery-princess-heading-to-australia-in-2025-26/76249 Discovery Princess heading to Australia in 2025/26 Princess Cruises President John Padgett confirms line’s flagship to sail locally. Princess Cruises will deploy Discovery Princess out of Sydney in the 2025/26 season, with the cruise line’s chief John Padgett revealing the move this morning during an event on board Royal Princess, which arrived today. “Australia is very important to Princess, so Australia is getting the best of Princess,” he said. Princess Senior VP Stuart Allison told Cruise Weekly Discovery Princess would sail alongside Crown Princess locally, while the full deployment details for this season’s ships including Majestic Princess and Royal Princess will be finalised shortly. Royal Princess‘ arrival this morning marks the start of the line’s biggest ever Australian summer season, with four ships including two Royal-class vessels homeported in Sydney for the first time.

Travel agents are currently jumping up and down on Facebook on this announcement.... I am currently trying to find a Press Release from Princess Cruises.... Here is what a agent has said: Princess has confirmed the deployment of Discovery Princess to Australia for the 25/26 wave season. Discovery is the last of the Royal Class ships and debuted in March 2022. She will be the newest Princess ship to seasonally homeport in Australia. Being a Royal class ship she shares many of the same features as Royal and majestic Princess who are homeporting in Australia this summer. Bookings are expected to open on Nov 15 2023. More soon!
