Princess Cruises began in 1965 and has grown to be one of the
larger and most popular lines. Its ships cruise to all seven continents
offering itineraries that range from seven to 102 days.
While the line's fleet includes several smaller ships, the mainstay is
the Grand-class ships of over 110,000 tons. These ships are modern
and sophisticated.
Princess seeks to offer its passengers numerous options so that
they can design their own cruise experiences. Accordingly, the larger
ships are divided into numerous venues offering different style
entertainment and/or dining options. The idea is that not everyone has
the same tastes and will seek out the venues most attuned to their
personal preferences. This also helps to give the big ships more of an
intimate feel and to prevent crowding.
The lifestyle on Princess is more casual than on sister companies
P&O Cruises and Cunard Line but still offers a taste of luxury. In
some of its brochures, it describes it as "American-style luxury."
Princess first came to worldwide attention as the setting for the
television series "Love Boat". It continues this tradition with its own
"Department of Romance".
