Princess Cruises ‘to sail all Caribbean regions for first time’ in 2026

Princess Cruises has opened bookings for its biggest summer Caribbean cruise season in 2026, with the line saying the programme would cover “all regions of the Caribbean for the first time ever”.

Regal Princess and Caribbean Princess will sail more than 90 voyages from Fort Lauderdale and Port Canaveral respectively.

Regal Princess will visit eastern, southern and western areas of the Caribbean on seven to eight-day itineraries, with options available for a 14-day combination cruise to visit more of the islands.

Highlights include an eight-day Southern Caribbean with ABC Islands cruise, a seven-day Eastern Caribbean with Bahamas, a seven-day Western Caribbean with Mexico, and a seven-day Eastern Caribbean with St. Thomas.

Caribbean Princess will go to eastern and western Caribbean on seven-day itineraries which can be combined to see both regions on 14-day Caribbean Adventurer sailings.

These include a six-day Easter Caribbean with Turks & Caicos tour, a seven-day Easter Caribbean with Turks & Caicos trip, a seven-day Western Caribbean with Mexico, and a seven-day Eastern Caribbean with Puerto Rico.

There will also be two Southern Caribbean Islander cruises bookending the season.

Caribbean Princess will make a 13-day trip from Fort Lauderdale on April 28, 2026, while Regal Princess will sail a 14-day itinerary on September 5, 2026.

Princess Cruises president John Padgett said: “Princess continues to expand access to our world-class premium experience now operating from eight North America homeports. 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.”
