Princess Cruises’ newest ship, Enchanted Princess, has successfully completed its first sea trials.

Enchanted will be based in Europe from April to September 2022

The ship, which had been due to launch in June, is currently under construction in Italy.


It completed a series of test manoeuvres before returning to the Fincantieri shipyard for final works.


Enchanted Princess is the line’s fifth of sixth Royal-class ships, sister to Royal Princess, Regal Princess, Majestic Princess and Sky Princess 


Its name was announced in August 2018, and it had been due to enter the Princess fleet in October 2019.

However, Princess president Jan Swartz in April confirmed the ship would be delayed, with its June naming ceremony in Southampton and maiden voyage cancelled.
