I'm impressed, Frank. You now will be the go-to person on the Princess CC board when we want an official answer. Thanks for getting this clarified!

Nah...anyone could have contacted Customer Relations to provide the same information. ;)

Wow, Frank. You are truly amazing. This is what happens when you retire. Lots of time on your hands.

One big issue is that the schedules as currently announced for Royal Princess for 2019-20 do not have it going to PV every week. Some weeks it does California Coastal, some times 5 nights to Cabo and back, and some other times, a short 4 night cruise (two 5 nights plus a four night equals 14 nights and gets it back on the regular departure day for 7 night cruises).

 

The alternate embarkation ports can work when a ship does the same thing cruise after cruise such as Regal Princess in the Baltic. Princess works in and out of the Baltic schedule by offering the Transatlantic cruise to/from all three (four in 2019) Baltic ports used for embarkation.

 

If Princess were to do this with PV, I'd expect one-ways would be available at beginning and end of season to work in and out of the schedule. How much demand there might be for one-ways is a different matter.

That’s one of the issues they’ll need to overcome if they’re implemented in Winter 2019/2020 but it wouldn’t be the first time that itineraries were modified. The Star & Emerald are also sailing different itineraries from LA during that time which might also be options.

 

The proposal has not been approved so all we can do is speculate about how it could be implemented...and whether it will actually happen.

That’s one of those it goes without saying situations & that it was a typo or a result of auto correct. ;)

Mexican Riviera Jan 12th 2020 on the Princess Grand. Puerto Vallarta is one of the ports the ship calls on.That means there is a good reason to consider the port for embarkations
