On May 11, 2010 I ventured down to San Francisco on a warm sunny day and visited the Golden Princess. The recent refurbishment of this ship definitely shines through in every turn.  Overall I was very impressed with her open space and refreshing décor of light browns and creams. It gave me a very nice sense of calm and peacefulness.

A sunny day in San Francisco revealed the hull of the Sea Princess sitting alongside pier 35. We were swiftly and efficiently brought aboard and set free to view the ship at our leisure. I have to say that knowing the ship is going into dry dock in only one month’s time I thought the ship was in rather good shape.

The Sea Princess along with sister ships Sun Princess and Dawn Princess, carries far fewer guests (1,950 guests) than vessels of comparable size, giving the ship a more spacious feeling.

First Time Historic Document Has Visited Alaska

Celebrating the Fourth of July and Alaska’s 50th anniversary of statehood, Princess Cruises showcased a rare, original copy of the United States of America’s founding document aboard Coral Princess Thursday during an onboard reception with local dignitaries and special guests.

The document was aboard Coral Princess to give passengers the unique opportunity to view the only traveling copy of the Declaration of Independence. This rare document is being showcased to more than 17,000 passengers aboard all eight Princess ships visiting Juneau during Independence week, July 1-8.
