The #ArrivalRevival in the U.S. continues, with Princess Cruises celebrating its first Alaskan voyage following the extended pause in operations.

Majestic Princess returned to Seattle at the weekend following its first successful voyage for Princess in the United States.

The ship became the line’s first ship to return to service, kicking off the partial season of Alaska sailings departing through September 26, 2021.

The round-trip, seven-day cruise visited Glacier Bay National Park, Juneau, Skagway and Ketchikan.

“Welcome back to Princess, is what I said to our guests while I was cruising with them onboard Majestic Princess for our first Return to Alaska cruise,” said Jan Swartz, Princess Cruises President.

“From the very beginning, Alaska has been at the core of Princess Cruises and has really helped shape the very essence of who we are today. While visiting ports of call, I personally expressed my gratitude to our port partners and elected officials who were instrumental in our return and joined me in warmly welcoming guests to their picturesque communities.”
