Island princess and Panama

[HiMagicFan]

I am starting my research for my panama cruise next year. Cartagena is supposed to be one of the ports but I don't see it on the princess web site under Panama or South America. Where else would I look or is princess not doing this and just hasn't updated their itinerary?

i went onto princess' web site and didn't find it under ports of call, but i did a search of their site for Cartagena and found a few links

 

http://www.princess.com/learn/shorex/shorexdisplay.jsp for shore excursions

Also I did this itinerary last year Vancouver to Fort Lauderdale and stopped in Cartagena, I blogged about it, and you can access my blog by the link below - cruise was last fall

 

hope this helps

I went to the Princess website and found Cartegena listed on every itinerary for Panama Canal cruises that I looked at.

Just go to the cruise you are interested in, e.g. "10 Day Round Trip from Ft. Lauderdale" and select a date. Then click on "Details and Availability" and "Itinerary" and you'll see where the ship goes and on what days.

I looked at about 5 different Island Princess cruises from various ports and they each stopped in Cartegna.

P.S. Cartegena was probably our favorite port-of-call.

Haven't looked recently, but Cartagena was only on the Partial transits back when we booked. Perhaps it is not on the full transits?

We go to Cartagena on a full transit on the Sea Princess in 33 days (not that I'm counting.....)

i hear you, 28 days for us... four weeks exactly (sounds better) see you on the seas

Routes have changed for 2011. I wanted to do a full short transit in 2011 like they had this year, but for 2011 the Island is doing partial FL RTs and the Coral is SF to Ft.Lauderdale (or is it LA) 14 day-ish ones.

12 days until we sail on the Coral from Vancouver to FLL. A day in Cartagena is going to be great.

We're on the Coral in September 2011 from Vancouver to FLL and Cartagena is on the itinerary.

Thank you for the information. I may have just missed it by looking in the wrong place. Appreciate the input and am looking forward to how all of your trips went - 28 days...I sure wish!

I got what I was looking for! Now to decide what to do.....

We have been to Cartagena and enjoyed our tour.:)
