Princess Cruises is the world's leading international premium cruise line, carrying more than one million passengers each year to more worldwide destinations than any other major line. Founded in 1965 by Stanley B. McDonald, the company has grown from a single ship cruising to Mexico into a global fleet that sails to all seven continents and calls at approximately 280 ports around the world.
With nearly 100 itineraries ranging from seven to 102 days, Princess Cruises offers unparalleled choice and flexibility for travelers. The line catapulted to stardom in 1977 when Pacific Princess was cast in 'The Love Boat,' introducing millions of viewers to the concept of a sea-going vacation. Today, as part of Carnival Corporation, Princess continues to innovate with its MedallionClass experience and maintains its reputation as one of the most recognized cruise lines in the industry, offering over 2,000 in-port excursions worldwide.
