Calling all Florida-bound adventurers! Princess Cruises, the iconic name in cruising, has joined forces with Brightline, Florida’s intercity rail service, to launch the new Rail & Sail program. This partnership promises a seamless and hassle-free travel experience, whisking you away to unforgettable escapes on the turquoise waters of the Caribbean.
Imagine this: you bypass the stress of driving or navigating airports. Instead, you settle into the luxurious comfort of a Brightline train, surrounded by stunning Florida scenery. With 16 round-trip journeys daily between Orlando and Fort Lauderdale, you’ll arrive at your chosen embarkation port feeling refreshed and ready to embark on your dream cruise.
But the luxury doesn’t stop there. Princess Cruises takes center stage with a dedicated train featuring four specially designed cars adorned with the beloved Love Boat logo. This rolling tribute to classic cruising sets the tone for an unforgettable adventure. Brightline’s five Florida terminals will also be adorned with Princess Cruises branding, further immersing you in the excitement of your upcoming voyage.
Unveiling the Ultimate Convenience: Luggage Express and Special Offers
The Rail & Sail program goes beyond comfort; it prioritizes convenience. Imagine checking your luggage at the Brightline station and finding it waiting for you in your stateroom upon arrival – a true game-changer for stress-free travel. This optional luggage express service, initially available on Orlando-to-Fort Lauderdale journeys, will soon expand to include Fort Lauderdale-to-Orlando routes. With rates starting at just $35 per bag, it’s a small price to pay for ultimate peace of mind.
To sweeten the deal, Princess Cruises is offering a limited-time discount for guests who book their cruise by May 5th. You’ll receive a credit usable towards Brightline’s Smart or Premium class service, ranging from $50 to $150 per person depending on your chosen stateroom category. Brightline’s Smart class offers plush leather seating, complimentary Wi-Fi, and convenient charging options, while Premium class adds delectable snacks, refreshing beverages, and access to a luxurious lounge.
Setting Sail from Fort Lauderdale and Port Canaveral
Princess Cruises reigns supreme at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, boasting a fleet of seven ships departing from the port. Here, you’ll have your pick of Caribbean escapes, from week-long getaways to epic 10- to 20-day adventures. Explore sun-drenched islands, embark on a transformative journey through the legendary Panama Canal, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
As of November 27th, 2024, Port Canaveral welcomes the iconic Love Boat experience with the arrival of Caribbean Princess. This vessel sets sail on itineraries ranging from 4 to 14 days, visiting the western Caribbean’s most popular destinations. From the shores of Grand Turk to the energy of San Juan and St. Thomas, immerse yourself in a world of cultural richness and breathtaking beauty. The program runs through April 2025, offering ample opportunities to experience the magic of the Love Boat firsthand.
