In a collaborative decision, Princess Cruises and Fincantieri, the esteemed shipbuilder, have shared a significant update regarding the delivery of Star Princess. The decision to postpone the ship's delivery reflects a steadfast commitment to maintaining the highest standards of quality and guest satisfaction.
A Shared Decision
"Despite our collective dedication and relentless pursuit to deliver the ship in late July, it has become evident that additional time is required to ensure the Star Princess is delivered to the highest standards expected by our guests," remarked John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises.
New Horizons Await
While the postponement may bring disappointment to some, it also heralds the dawn of new opportunities for exploration and adventure.
The rescheduled inaugural sailings of Star Princess promise captivating journeys, beginning with an 11-day Mediterranean voyage on October 4, 2025, followed by a 7-day Mediterranean voyage on October 15, 2025. These voyages will precede a 14-day transatlantic crossing to Fort Lauderdale on October 22, 2025, marking the commencement of the ship's first Caribbean season.
Options for Guests
Guests who were scheduled to sail on the affected voyages will be presented with three flexible options. They can choose to book any Princess cruise worldwide, including aboard the new Star Princess or sister ship Sun Princess. Additionally, guests opting for rebooking will receive future cruise and onboard credits based on their selected cruise. Alternatively, guests have the option to cancel their reservation and receive a full refund of the cruise fare.
Embracing Innovation
Star Princess, part of the esteemed Sphere Class of ships, embodies Princess Cruises' dedication to innovation and excellence. Sister ship Sun Princess, which debuted earlier this year, has already captured the hearts of passengers with its iconic design elements and unparalleled onboard experiences.
