Princess Cruises Unveils 47 Itineraries for 2023-24 Americas Season

Princess Cruises today announced its most extensive regional schedule ever for the 2023-24 Americas Cruise Season. Its 214 departures will span 47 different itineraries, including brand-new cruises to Hawaii and the South Pacific, sailing out of seven convenient North American homeports.

The 2023-24 Americas Cruise Season will see the Sapphire Princess sailing two new roundtrip South Pacific Islands & Hawaii itineraries sailing out of Los Angeles, which will include “More Ashore” late-night stays in Honolulu and Tahiti, and visit Fiji for the first time ever.

Meanwhile, Discovery Princess will conduct its first-ever Hawaii cruises, sailing two itineraries to the Aloha State that feature overnight stays in Honolulu. Sailing once again out of Galveston, Regal Princess will be able to offer guests hassle-free drive or fly options on their way to enjoying the sun-splashed islands of the Western Caribbean.

Guests have several North American departure points to choose from for 2023-24 Americas roundtrip cruises—including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Vancouver, Galveston, Fort Lauderdale and New York. A variety of available starting points should make it easier than ever for customers to access the cruise vacation of their dreams through a short drive or domestic flight.

“No one can match our unique combination of unparalleled itinerary choices with the authentic, personalized MedallionClass experience that makes a Princess cruise so special and memorable. So, whether you’re looking for a quick Caribbean getaway or a ‘bucket list’ trip to the South Pacific – or anything in between – Princess has got you covered,” said John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises.
