John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises, loves the idea of making Port Canaveral home, citing the vibrant community, excellent flight options, and fantastic pre- and post-cruise experiences. Plus, the exclusive Princess Medallion offers personalized experiences for each guest, from contactless payment to keyless stateroom entry and even food delivery wherever you are on the ship.
This exciting move is part of Princess Cruises’ expansion in North America, making it even easier for cruise enthusiasts in Central Florida to hop aboard. Port CEO Capt. John Murray is thrilled about the collaboration, saying it’s an exciting milestone for both parties.
The Caribbean Princess, launched in 2004, boasts 1,571 staterooms and 19 decks (including 15 passenger decks) across its 112,894 gross tons. With a total capacity of 3,140 guests and 1,200 crew members, you’ll be in for an unforgettable experience!
