Enchanged Princess

[stevenr597]

Just saw the announcement for Enchanted Princess. So Princess has Majestic, Sky, and Enchanted Princess coming out. Hope that one of them will be based at Port Canaveral. Port Canaveral near the Space Center, Disney, Sea World, and Universal would be a great fit for Princess.

Please check the spelling in your forum title (Enchanged Princess).

 

Princes actually these royal class ships: The Royal, Regal, Majestic, which are all presently sailing various itineraries. The Sky will debut in June 2019 in Europe and then transfer to the USA in December 2019, the Enchanted will debut in June 2020 in Europe and then transfer to the USA in December 2020, and a yet unnamed royal class ship which will debut in 2022.

 

They will then have 2 unnamed and unclassed ships which will have a new propulsion system - Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG).

 

Unfortunately, Princess does not presently depart from Port Canaveral.

Doubtful. Ft. Lauderdale has more flights to get passengers in and out and the airport 15 mins. from the sea port. I believe the largest international airport near Port Canaveral is Orlando about an hour away.

Majestic is already out (April 2017).

 

Princess has invested a lot of money in Port Everglades. I doubt they will go to Port Canaveral.

They have tried some Southern ports with out much luck. It could happen.

Please check the spelling in your post (Princes) and grammar.

Recall the years that Princess had a ship stationed in Galveston/Houston: Western Caribbean sailings from Ft Lauderdale were noticeably reduced as there really wasn't any increase in overall demand for them simply because a second embarkation port was offered.

 

New ships do not create new deployments; they simply replace existing ones with a product they can charge the same (or higher) fares for while reducing fixed costs as calculated per capita. Cruises from Port Canaveral would either have to be a day or two longer, or have one less port/one more sea day than the equivalent itineraries from Ft Lauderdale--again something totally contrary to the business model as either option will reduce onboard spend.

It looks like no one want to "exchange" Princess

[c-boy]

I see what ya did there o p

port Canaveral is more of a family type embarkation port with its proximity to Orlando and those attractions - the 3 and 4 day cruises by Disney, Carnival, etc - allow for a couple of days at the theme parks also

 

Carnival is/has spent a bunch of money on the terminal and "Bliss" will be calling it home soon

 

that's a bunch of capacity...:cool:
