The Island is doing three 10-day Caribbean sailings from New York in 2025 (July 4, August 19, August 29) that spend two days in Bermuda. -
A game changer coming for Florida cruising
Princess Cruises Fann replied to PescadoAmarillo's topic in Princess Cruises
Princess just completely changed 3 itineraries on the Island Princess in 2025 (July 4th, August 19th, August 29th) which are now 10 day Caribbean cruises from New York with an overnight in Bermuda. -
Attached are the itineraries for 2025-2026 for Asia and Japan. They go on sale on March 27th for Elites and March 28th for the general public. Princess Asia Japan 2025-2026.pdf

The Diamond Princess 2025/2026 SE Asia and Japan have not been released yet. Carmen Roig, Vice President of Sales for Princess Cruises is doing a webinar on Thursday on Facebook live for travel advisors (I think this one may also be available to the general public) to give a preview of the 2025/2026 Asia and Japan itineraries. I'm hoping @Coral will also post them when she receives them.

Island Princess- Good or Bad?
Princess Cruises Fann replied to In Toronto's topic in Princess Cruises
I was on the Island for 14 days this past November. I have seen the negative reviews, but I thoroughly enjoyed my cruise and have no complaints about the ship. I would certainly sail on the Island again. -
I submitted my request to Stockperks this afternoon and then received the email this afternoon that my $250 was applied to my booking.

Island Princess World Cruise 2025
Princess Cruises Fann replied to Claypool's topic in Princess Cruises
Looking at the ship deployment it will either be the Sapphire or the Coral doing the 2026 WC from Ft. Lauderdale. I personally think it may be the Sapphire since it is doing the 14 day Circle Caribbean Holiday December cruise ending back in Ft. Lauderdale on January 5, 2026, which is usually around the date the WC begins from Ft. Lauderdale. It's a mystery on what the Coral will be doing. It currently doesn't have anything scheduled after it arrives in Ft. Lauderdale on November 13th. Maybe going into dry dock or maybe South America for the 2025/2026 season. It also could be that it will be doing an extended world cruises itinerary, which visits different ports and is longer than the traditional 111 day world cruise that Princess normally does. I guess we will find out in due time. -
Back to Back Shore Excursions...
Princess Cruises Fann replied to Don_In_AZ's topic in Princess Cruises
I've done back-to-back excursions in a port pretty much without any issue, even with as small of a window as an hour to hour and a half in between. I only once had a Princess excursion that went way over the time because the guide wanted to take the group to another place that wasn't on the original itinerary. We arrived back after our other excursion left, but then went and explained the situation at the Shore Excursion desk, and they provided a full refund for our afternoon tour. If you can, I would book the tour you care about most as your early one so just in the rare instance it is delayed you don't miss out on what you really wanted to see and do in that port. -
Natalie is currently on the Diamond. She has been posting on her Instagram. When I was on the Island the other week, Andi Sanders was leaving the ship on November 23rd and said he was rejoining the Island in time for the world cruise. I then asked Jaclyn what she would be doing since she was taking over as cruise director on the Island on November 23rd. Jaclyn said she would be transferring to the Ruby.

Charges for using Credit Card on Princess.
Princess Cruises Fann replied to Reina del Mar's topic in Princess Cruises
It's just for Australian cruises. Paying any balance on your folio with a debit card or cash doesn't incur that 1.1% charge. -
I just got off the Island on a 14 day cruise and have absolutely no complaints about the ship. It was my first time on the Island and definitely would sail on her again.

Ocean Medallion App - Part 4
Princess Cruises Fann replied to Host CJSKIDS's topic in Princess Cruises
I just got off the Island Princess and some of the photo staff mentioned there will be a new Princess Cruises app that will replace the Medallion app. They mentioned the timeline for the new app is supposed to roll out in January. -
It's possible that the Crown could be doing SE Asia in 2025. There is a cruise from Australia to Singapore that ends on October 14, 2025 with not yet any additional cruises listed after that. I'm waiting to see what Princess does for SE Asia for the 2025-2026 season.

Advice needed: Land Tour Australia
Princess Cruises Fann replied to Worldtraveler 4727's topic in Princess Cruises
They had a picnic setup for the sunset viewing of Uluru Rock that included cheese, fruit, kangaroo, and drinks. Dinner was not included that night. Some people ate at the hotel and others ate at some of the restaurants close by. We were fine with the spread they had at the sunset picnic so we chose not to do dinner since we were going to get up so early the next morning. We hung out in the pool for a while and then went to bed to get up for the sunset at Uluru Rock. Breakfast was included that morning. It was a buffet breakfast at the hotel. -

Love 5 Skies. Saw it on the Sky in December 2019, and then on the Enchanted Princess in June 2023. -
Advice needed: Land Tour Australia
Princess Cruises Fann replied to Worldtraveler 4727's topic in Princess Cruises
On our tour, we flew back from Cairns to Sydney the day before the ship was scheduled to disembark. In the morning, we stopped at a couple of sites in Sydney and toured the Opera House and got on the ship early afternoon. -

That tour did not include the Opera House, but you have a nice view of the Opera House and the Sydney Bridge as you leave the harbor and head to Bondi Beach. Part of the land tour will include the Sydney Opera House. That was the last part of the land tour before we boarded the Majestic Princess. We could see the ship in the harbor as we touring the Opera House. -
Advice needed: Land Tour Australia

1. No, we were never contacted by the Bob Woods group before our land tour. 2. We did get our medallion shipped to us and it arrived before we left for Australia. -
