Princess Cruises will homeport a ship in central Florida for the first time next year.

'The ripple effect from the coronavirus outbreak will persist across the travel market for the months'

Caribbean Princess will sail out of Port Canaveral starting November 2024

Caribbean Princess will operate out of Port Canaveral, starting November 2024. It will sail a selection of eastern and western Caribbean itineraries, ranging from four to 14 days.

These include a four-day Turks & Caicos getaway over the Thanksgiving holiday. Cruises out of Port Canaveral onboard the 3,140-passenger ship will go on sale on 24 May.

Princess president John Padgett said the port, which serves as a gateway to Orlando, was a perfect fit for Caribbean Princess owing to flight options into Orlando International airport and the range of options available for pre- and post-cruise experiences in the region.
