The 2025/26 Americas season offers 278 cruises departing from seven North American ports, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Galveston, Fort Lauderdale, Port Canaveral, New York City and Vancouver. 

The programme goes on sale on 20 December. 

It features 10 ships, including Star Princess sailing its maiden season from Fort Lauderdale alongside Sun Princess, due to launch early next year, Caribbean Princess, Emerald Princess, Enchanted Princess, Island Princess, Majestic Princess, Regal Princess, Sapphire Princess and Sky Princess. 

Chief commercial officer Terry Thornton said: “Our 2025/26 Americas program is our largest ever offered, making it convenient for guests to drive to their nearby port or take a short flight to enjoy a spectacular Princess cruise.

“Sun Princess and Star Princess will deliver epic vacations and magnify the beauty of the Caribbean by offering guests the most celebrated views.” 

Meanwhile, the official keel-laying ceremony for the line’s second Sphere-class ship – Star Princess – was held in Monfalcone, Italy, on Monday (11 December). 

The keel is traditionally the first block of the ship to be built. 

“Our multi-decade shipbuilding collaboration continues to progress as we build spectacular ships that are enabled by the most advanced technology available while infusing magnificent Italian craftsmanship and respecting beautiful Princess design heritage," said Princess Cruises president John Padgett.
