Princess Cruises’ Diamond Princess has returned to service after an almost three-year hiatus imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic and refurbishment work.

The sailing milestone completes the Princess Cruises fleet

The vessel – which was one of the first to be quarantined at the start of the pandemic after passengers tested positive for Covid-19 – welcomed guests onboard for its inaugural sailing from its new homeport of San Diego on Sunday (20 November). 

From November 2022 through February 2023, Diamond is offering a series of cruise itineraries ranging from five to 16 days and is calling at ports along the Mexican Riviera, California coast and the Hawaiian islands.
