Fresh off last week’s announcement that our 2024-2025 Caribbean program goes on sale to the public Apr 19, I am thrilled to give you yet another announcement: Our 2024-2025 West Coast and Panama Canal sailings go on sale Apr 26 (Elite Captain’s Circle members can start booking Apr 25, an exclusive early booking benefit). With many of our newest ships in these regions, plus the MedallionClass® Experience offered on all voyages, this promises to be one of our most exciting seasons yet. Here are some of the highlights: 

 

 

• Mexico, California Coast & Hawaii: Our West Coast program includes 7-to 11-day roundtrip voyages sailing to Mexico out of Los Angeles and San Francisco, where your clients will visit unforgettable locations such as Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlán, and Puerto Vallarta. There are our signature 16-day sailings to Hawaii that visit the four most popular islands on one cruise. And lastly, there are 3-11 day California Coast voyages that will take them to destinations such as San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Santa Barbara, with departures from Los Angeles, Vancouver, Seattle, and San Francisco. 

 

 

• Panama Canal: Princess offers two ways to see the epic Panama Canal, including new 12-day roundtrip sailings from Fort Lauderdale aboard Emerald Princess®, which include destinations like Costa Rica & the Caribbean, as well as Ocean-to-Ocean 15- to 23-day voyages between Fort Lauderdale, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, and Vancouver. 

 

 

Captain’s Circle Savings: Don’t forget, if your clients have sailed with Princess previously, they’re also eligible to receive extra savings of up to $100 per person when they book before July 31, 20231

So Caribbean Princess was not included in the recent Caribbean, West Coast or Panama Canal announcements, nor was she included in the previous Aus/NZ announcement ..... sooo where is she going????  South America, SE Asia, or maybe stay in NYC/BOS year round and do long Caribbean sailings??????  She seems ill suited to any of those options given other ships in the fleet.  Could this mean a possible transfer to P&O Australia to sail alongside sisters Star and Golden????? "Curiouser and curiouser said Alice!"

Doubtful - if she were to leave the Princess fleet it would be an intra Carnival Corp transfer with P&O AU the most likely brand to be a new home.  Grand more likely to meet the scrapper before Caribbean, neither of which is likely soon

I know. Only busting.

 

(But the way things have been going since covid, nothing would surprise me anymore.)

That ship can go away IMO..... I think with the Sun coming, something will go.

Nice! I was sorry to miss the La Paz/Loreto trips by Diamond and Sapphire, so I'm glad Majestic and Grand will be going there and break up the monotony of just having Discovery there.

I like having the Grand as an option!

The Caribbean showed up on 2025 tentative cruise schedule port call in Astoria, OR a few weeks back, but now no longer is showing.  She was supposed to do a short coastal after a canal trip last spring which also saw her go into drydock in Portland, OR.  Ultimately, she would have been the first ship to dock in Canada since 2019 and had supposedly had a high number of covid cases on board (remember covid?), so ultimately her FLL to YVR cruise was truncated in SFO and the short coastal voyage was cancelled the day before.  Unfortunately, her naming hamstrings her to sailing part of the year in the caribbean, but then again, maybe not.  Another possibility is to follow what Carnival did with the original Destiny class trio which included new names and extensive refits.

 

Or she could become the Australian Princess 🙃

Names mean nothing that ship has many itineraries

Be careful not to be scammed by their system glitches.  Just went through that for the Caribbean pricing released today
