Princess Cruises passengers sailing the Caribbean and Panama Canal will have even more itineraries and cruise ships to choose from during the 2020-2021 season which goes on sale this week.
The upcoming season will also see Princess Cruises offer two of the newest and youngest ships in the region with Enchanted and Sky Princess both sailing the Caribbean.
In the Caribbean, a total of five ships will offer 127 departures on 15 unique itineraries, ranging from four to 20 days.
