The Artania was in San Francisco for three days and two nights on a cruise around the world. I took notice of it, and learned of it’s history, while looking at the Cruise Mapper website. It truly is a beautiful classic cruise ship; originally christened the Royal Princess in 1984, by Princess Diana. I saw a recent tour of the ship on YouTube, and I was very impressed with it’s features. Last March we cruised to the Mexican Riviera (out of San Francisco) on the current Royal Princess; that ship was christened by Princess Katherine (Kate). Hopefully the Artania’s cruise to Hawaii is improving. (Versus the first 36 - 48 hours.)  

The Phoenix Reisen Artania left San Francisco for Hawaii last night, and I’m sure it has not been a “relaxing day at sea” for them; the weather in the Bay Area the past 24 hours has been horrible!  

Excellent trip report! We’ll be sailing on the NCL Spirit in July, and we appreciate the heads up about VERIFLY and ARRIVECAN. 

Looks like the Pride of America has finally left Portland Oregon, and is sailing back to Honolulu Hawaii. Whoop! Whoop!
