Princess Cruises

Princess Cruises has grown to become one of the premiere cruise lines in the world. Today, its fleet carries more than 800,000 passengers each year to more worldwide destinations than any other major line. The most recognized cruise line in the world was catapulted to stardom in 1977 when the original (long since retired) Pacific Princess was cast in a starring television role on "The Love Boat".

The Princess Fleet is comprised of four distinct ship sizes allowing it to assure the right size and class for each region and itinerary. The new Crown Class includes three unbelievable 3,100 passenger mega ships. Six ships make up the Grand Class ships (2,600 to 2,800 passengers) and there are eight Sun Class (1,900 passengers) ships. Finally, the two Explorer Class (670 passengers) ships provide the perfect blend of a small-ship atmosphere with today's modern amenities.

European Cruise Vacations remain one of thw strongest segments of summer tourism. Advance bookings for 2009 are strong! Read more on this trend!
