Set to arrive on Aussie shores October 26, the 113,561-tonne Crown Princess will be the largest ship that Princess Cruises have ever sent to Australia to sail fulltime. Throughout her debut season she’ll 78 visits across 21 ports in the country, another record for a Princess ship in Australia.
Crown Princess will also become the biggest ship to ever host a world cruise when it leaves Australia on a 113-night world cruise in May 2025.
The ship packs in more than 200 suites and min-suites, specialty restaurants like Sabatini’s and Crown Grill, endless activities and its special Movies Under The Stars screenings.
The new-to-Australia ship will be headlining a huge Princess Cruises season in Australia, with Diamond Princess and Royal Princess also set to sail out of Australia. The three ships will offer a total of 117 departures between October 2024 and September 2025.
The ships will be sailing out of a record seven ports, across Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Fremantle, Hobart and Auckland.
Princess Cruises Senior Vice President Asia Pacific, Europe and UK Stuart Allison says: “As the biggest Princess ship ever based in Australian year round, Crown Princess’ capacity is 50 per cent more than any other Princess ship based full time in our waters.
“Her deployment is a major milestone which reflects Australians’ enduring love of cruising and loyalty to Princess in Australia.”
Allison also says the accomodations on Crown Princess as the biggest ever princess ship in Australia will be a step up.
“Plus with almost 900 of her staterooms featuring private balconies – more than any other ship ever based here full-time – Crown Princess will give more Australians the chance to cruise in style.”
