Princess Cruises: A Leader in Global Cruising
Princess Cruises has been creating unforgettable cruise experiences since 1965, when it launched its first voyage with a single ship sailing to Mexico. Today, it stands as the third largest cruise line in the world, welcoming more than 1.7 million guests each year aboard a fleet of 18 modern ships.
Known for its innovative ships, wide range of onboard experiences, and commitment to exceptional service, Princess Cruises offers travelers the chance to explore some of the most beautiful destinations around the globe in comfort and style.
The brand became a household name in 1977 when the Pacific Princess was featured as the setting of the popular television series The Love Boat. The show introduced millions to the joys of cruising and played a key role in the industry’s rapid growth. To this day, the Princess Cruises name and its signature seawitch logo remain iconic symbols of the cruise experience.
Princess Cruises continues to set the standard for excellence at sea, providing journeys that allow guests to relax, recharge, and discover the world with ease.
