Princess Cruises today announced additional Mediterranean voyages for the inaugural season of its newest ship, Sun Princess.
The season will include itineraries which start or end in Southampton. As previously announced by the line, the 4,300-guest Sun Princess will sail on a 10-night ‘Grand Mediterranean’ inaugural voyage on February 8, 2024. The additional Mediterranean itineraries through to September 2024 will go on sale on November 9, 2022.
The new Sun Princess will be in Southampton on September 22 and 23, 2024.
The full European season aboard Sun Princess includes 10-night itineraries visiting popular stops throughout the Western and Eastern Mediterranean and a series of seven-night voyages departing from either Barcelona, Rome (Civitavecchia) or Athens, which can be combined for 14-night or 21-night voyages.
Eithne Williamson, vice president Princess Cruises UK and Europe, said: “Welcoming the beautiful Sun Princess to Southampton in 2024 will mark a very special visit, as it will be the first time a brand-new ship in the Princess fleet has called in to a UK port during a maiden season in more than 10 years. Sun Princess will also be our first ship to be powered by eco-friendly Liquefied Natural Gas, just one of a host of ways we are honouring our commitment to sustainable operations.”
