NY/Caribbean Princess Cruises

When the Crown Princess debuts in the summer of 2006, the vessel will introduce Princess Cruises' first-ever roundtrip Caribbean sailings from New York. This inaugural sailing season will feature nine-day roundtrip voyages to both the Eastern and Western Caribbean and will include Princess's return to Bermuda.

Beginning June 14 and running through October 18, 2006, the Crown Princess will offer 10 sailings on an Eastern Caribbean itinerary with calls at Bermuda (West End), San Juan, St. Thomas, and a new port-of-call for Princess, Grand Turk in the Turks and Caicos Islands. In addition, the lineup includes five sailings on a Western Caribbean itinerary with stops at another new port for Princess, Port Canaveral, as well as Grand Cayman, Ocho Rios, and Grand Turk.

The brand-new 116,000-gross-register-ton Crown Princess will introduce a number of design innovations to the Princess fleet, including a dramatic new piazza-style atrium, new casual dining venues, and expansion of some favorite shipboard areas. The ship will also feature the many hallmark features that define the Princess experience, including the dramatic "Movies Under The Stars" poolside movie screen, multiple dining and entertainment options, a wedding chapel, and nearly 900 staterooms with private balconies.
