Crown Princess has arrived in Southampton to begin its spring and summer season in the UK.
The Princess Cruises’ vessel will sail around the British Isles on a series of 12-night voyages.
The 3,080-guest ship has more than 1,500 cabins, including almost 900 balconies, and four swimming pools.
It will feature the Ocean Medallion technology from July 24 – the first UK-based ship to do so.
Three ships to date have been ‘Medallion-activated’ – Caribbean Princess, Regal Princess and Royal Princess.
In September, Crown Princess will make her way to Fort Lauderdale and sail round trip Caribbean itineraries.
The ship will return to the UK from May to November 2020, where she will sail from Southampton on a series of voyages to the Mediterranean, Canary Islands and northern Europe.
