Princess` most intimate vessels will spend summer 2007 sailing through a variety of South Pacific itineraries, perfect for a relaxing island-filled vacation. Not only will Princess offer its first-ever summer Hawaiian Islands cruise season, but ships will sail a special cruise to Midway Islands for the 65th anniversary of the Battle of Midway and feature several full Pacific crossings.
Pacific Princess, Tahitian Princess and Regal Princess will each offer different South Pacific options. Pacific Princess crosses the Pacific from Sydney, offering a variety of cruise segments along the way. Tahitian Princess begins another full season of French Polynesia and Hawaii/Tahiti sailings, now scheduled through spring 2008. And Regal Princess` final season with the line features the company`s first ever summer sailings on the favorite roundtrip Hawaiian Islands sailings, plus a Midway Anniversary cruise.
These cruises are perfect for passengers looking for a summer island getaway, said Jan Swartz, Princess` senior vice president of customer service and sales. We know our smaller ships have many fans who will appreciate the opportunity to enjoy a summertime escape to Hawaii, Tahiti and other romantic South Pacific destinations.
