Princess Cruises Set to Return to the Amazon River in 2028
Princess Cruises is gearing up for a return to the Amazon, as it has announced details on its 2028-2029 Americas schedule. With over 250 departures to choose from, sailings range from quick four-day getaways to an epic new 64-night Circle South America adventure.
South America & Antarctica
Princess’ 2028-2029 South America season features 13 departures across 11 itineraries, visiting 16 countries aboard Majestic Princess and Coral Princess. Signature experiences include 17-night Antarctica & Patagonia cruises, 15-night Cape Horn & Glaciers of Patagonia sailings, and Princess’ return to the Amazon River for the first time since 2014 — with scenic cruising and a visit to Santarém, Brazil.
New for the season, Coral Princess will offer a 64-night Circle South America cruise combining Antarctica, the Amazon River, and a transit through the Panama Canal locks.
Caribbean
Princess will offer an extensive collection of eastern, western, and southern Caribbean voyages during the 2028-2029 season. Travelers can sail from Port Everglades, Port Canaveral, San Juan, New York City, and Barbados to the Caribbean, visiting 24 destinations across 20 islands.
Many itineraries include stops at exclusive Carnival Corporation destinations, including Celebration Key in the Bahamas; Isla Tropicale in Roatán, Honduras; and Half Moon Cay in the Bahamas.
Panama Canal
Princess’ 2028-2029 Panama Canal season features 12 departures on nine 16-20 night itineraries aboard five ships: Coral, Crown, Island, Ruby, and Star Princess. Ocean-to-ocean voyages connect the Atlantic and Pacific with full canal transits through either the historic locks (two voyages) or the newer Neopanamax locks (six transits). Sailings also include calls to destinations in Mexico, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean.
Mexico
Princess Cruises will offer 35 Mexico departures from LA and San Francisco, with seven to 11-night voyages visiting destinations including Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlán, Puerto Vallarta, Manzanillo, and La Paz. All 10-night Baja Peninsula & Sea of Cortez sailings feature an overnight stay in Cabo San Lucas.
California Coast
18 departures ranging from four to seven nights showcase the Pacific Coast, with departures from Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Vancouver. Princess will be offering More Ashore late-night visits in San Diego, San Francisco, and Victoria.
Canada & New England
17 departures aboard Regal Princess and Caribbean Princess highlight New England, eastern Canada, and the St. Lawrence River on five unique itineraries ranging from seven to 14 nights. New for 2028, Princess will introduce Îles de la Madeleine, an island destination in the Gulf of St. Lawrence known for its dramatic red sandstone cliffs and distinctive Acadian culture. Seven Classic Canada & New England voyages also feature an overnight stay in Quebec.
Hawaii
14 Hawaii departures will explore Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and Hawaii Island, with every voyage including a late-night stay in Honolulu. Roundtrip sailings are offered from LA, San Francisco, and — returning for the 2028-2029 season — Vancouver.
