Australian and New Zealand Travel Agents were among the first on board Princess Cruises’ brand new ship, Sky Princess, the first ship designed from the ground up as a Princess MedallionClass ship.
The 3,660-guest ship sailed a four-night shakedown cruise from Trieste to Athens last week, with top Aussie Agents among those on board the special cruise.
The group was the first to attend the new onboard entertainment show, Rock Opera, and enjoyed dining at speciality restaurants including, Sabatini’s Italian Restaurant and The Crown Grill.

The new flagship vessel is said to “feature an evolution of the design platform used for the cruise line’s previous Royal-Class ships”.
The ship features the complimentary OceanMedallion wearable device (aka a personal concierge for passengers).
MedallionClass Holidays promise to deliver a new level of service creating a holiday that is more seamless, effortless and personalised.
The lucky agents were able to test run the innovative technology.
Sky Princess started her inaugural season in Europe on a seven-day Mediterranean & Adriatic maiden voyage from Athens to Barcelona on Sunday.
The ship will sail a series of Mediterranean voyages before debuting in North America on 1 December 2019, for a season of Caribbean cruises from Ft. Lauderdale.
Sky Princess shares all of the spectacular style and elegance of her sister ships – Regal Princess, Royal Princess and Majestic Princess.

Two new entertainment experiences are offered – Phantom Bridge, a world’s first game combining digital and physical elements for the ultimate immersive escape room, and Take 5, the only jazz theatre at sea, celebrating the iconic sounds, culture and history of jazz.
The Princess Cruises fleet continues to expand with Enchanted Princess in June 2020, Discovery Princess in November 2021 and two additional ships in 2023 and 2025.
