Princess Announces Caribbean Cruises for 2008-2009

Princess Cruises has announced its 2008-2009 Caribbean cruise itineraries, and the cruise line is including more 10-day and 14-day cruises to the region than ever before.In addition, Princess will be sending its newest ship, the Ruby Princess, to the Caribbean after her launch late next year. Seven Princess ships carrying from 710 to 3,100 passengers will sail on 11 itineraries to all corners of the Caribbean.

Two new itineraries make their debut, including a new 14-day itinerary on Grand Princess featuring nine ports - among them La Romana (Dominican Republic), Curacao, Trinidad and Barbados. Royal Princess offers three 14-day escapes to several boutique, less-visited ports and sails as far south as Devil's Island in South America. In addition, Crown Princess will sail on a seven-day Eastern Caribbean itinerary with the added port of Grand Turk, along with the traditional ports of Princess Cays, St. Maarten and St. Thomas.

The new Ruby Princess makes her debut with a series of seven-day Western Caribbean sailings. Caribbean Princess sails the Southern Caribbean offering alternating seven-day itineraries out of San Juan, while Emerald Princess returns with two 10-day roundtrip itineraries from Ft. Lauderdale. And, Sea Princess returns with another series of 14-day sailings from Barbados, featuring a new call to Samana, in the Dominican Republic.
