Princess Cruises Announces Historic Caribbean Expansion — What to Know
27.08.2024 - 16:11 / travelandleisure.com / John Padgett
Princess Cruises is launching its largest-ever Caribbean cruise season in 2026, sailing to all regions of the Caribbean for the first time in the company’s history.
Travelers will be able to choose from 90 different voyages during the summer of 2026 on two of its ships, the Regal Princess and the Caribbean Princess, according to the cruise line. The two ships will depart from Port Everglades in Ft. Lauderdale and Port Canaveral, respectively.
“Princess continues to expand access to our world-class premium experience now operating from eight North America homeports,” John Padgett, the president of Princess Cruises, said in a statement. “With ships now departing from both Central Florida and South Florida, it’s easier and more convenient than ever to set sail aboard the iconic Love Boat.”
From Ft. Lauderdale, travelers can venture out on 7-day Eastern or Western Caribbean sailings to destinations like San Juan, Cozumel, and Grand Turk, or cruise on 8-day Southern Caribbean sailings to ports like Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao. Or combine them on a 14-day trip to visit multiple regions.
From Port Canaveral, travelers can board a 7-day trip to the Eastern or Western Caribbean. These trips can also be combined into a 14-day sailing.
The company’s 2026 voyages are now available to book with Princess. As a bonus, travelers who are members of the company’s Captain’s Circle loyalty program will receive up to $200 in onboard credits when they book a summer 2026 cruise by Oct. 31. Members will receive $50 per person for voyages lasting seven to 10 days and $100 per person for combined 14-day voyages.
Travelers heading on a Princess Cruises trip have a more convenient way to get there thanks to the company’s partnership with high-speed rail company Brightline. As part of the “Rail & Sail" feature, Princess will provide a complimentary motorcoach service between either Brightline’s Orlando or Fort Lauderdale train stations and the embarkation terminal.

Cape Liberty cruise port: A guide to cruising from New Jersey
The first thing you'll notice about the Cape Liberty cruise port is the views: Situated on the Hudson River in New Jersey across from New York City, the port has spectacular skyline panoramas of Manhattan and unimpeded views of the Statue of Liberty. In fact, sailing out of Cape Liberty will bring you face-to-face (OK, face-to-toes) with Lady Liberty when you sail through the harbor.
