February 18
Voyage Regrettably Cancelled;
Princess to Give Guests
Full Refund Plus 50% Future Cruise Credit and Cover Travel
Costs
MONFALCONE, Italy, Feb. 14,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Princess Cruises today has
taken delivery of Sun Princess, an entirely new ship platform
designed by Fincantieri exclusively for the Princess
brand.
The 175,500-ton, 4,300-guest Sun Princess is the most impressive
luxurious and stunning Love Boat ever created, offering an array of
exciting new entertainment and activities, as well as sensational
staterooms and suites across a broad spectrum of
categories. With the most balconies on any Princess ship,
guests can take in the sunshine and crystal-clear waters of the
Mediterranean and Caribbean from
the comfort of their stateroom. The Dome, a transformational
entertainment venue inspired by the terraces of Santorini, is the
perfect place to relax and the Arena! is an evolution and the most
technologically advanced Princess Theater design.
The ship does need to remain alongside in the shipyard to allow
for additional technical work to ensure an outstanding vacation is
delivered. Accordingly, the cruise line regrettably is cancelling
the February 18 voyage. Sun Princess
now will make its maiden voyage on February
28 from Rome.
Guests who were booked on the February
18 voyage will receive a full refund of the cruise fare
along with any additional onboard services that were pre-purchased,
as well as a 50% future cruise credit (FCC) that can be used on a
future Princess voyage*.
The cruise brand is also offering financial reimbursement for
select travel costs for guests who have already arrived ahead of
their sailing and for guests who have not yet started their travel
certain changes fees related to flights.
Princess is also protecting travel agent commissions.
*FCC must be booked by November 30,
2024 and sailed by December 31,
2025.
