It’s the news that’s been kept under wraps for weeks – with ‘dummy’ bookings at the Overseas Passenger Terminal and all communications claiming The Majestic Princess was China bound.
But this week, Princess Cruises revealed the brand new US$600 million 19-deck mega liner will become the newest Princess to join the Aussie fleet. She will be homeported in Sydney from September 15, 2018.
She’ll be sailing on a number of six to 19 night cruises around Australia and New Zealand before a repositioning cruise from Brisbane.
Fares start from $1,899 per person, twin share for an interior cabin.
The ship has some beautiful new features, Â including two restaurants from Michelin-starred chefs, a great shopping promenade with brands like Cartier, Chopard, Bulgari, Prada, Coach, Gucci.
