Princess Cruises partners with Brightline for Rail & Sail Program
Princess Cruises has joined hands with rail operator Brightline to launch a Rail & Sail program in Florida for cruise ship guests
It will offer rail connections to Florida homeports Fort Lauderdale and Port Canaveral.
To mark the collaboration, a Brightline train will have four custom-designed cars with Princess’Â Love Boat branding.
Princess’ branding will also be featured in Brightline’s five terminals throughout Florida.
The program features a value-added baggage express service allowing cruise ship guests to check in bags at their Brightline station which are shipped directly to their stateroom upon arrival at the port.
Princess guests get discounts of up to 15% when booking Smart and Premium Rail & Sail packages online through Brightline.
For a limited time, guests who book a Princess cruise by May 5 will receive a Brightline credit of up to $150 per person for Smart and Premium class service based on stateroom type.
“This new partnership with Brightline makes it even easier and more enjoyable to sail with us from the top-rated ports in South and Central Florida,” said John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises.
Brightline’s rail schedule features 16 round-trip journeys between Orlando and Fort Lauderdale with stops at West Palm Beach and Boca Raton.
South Florida residents can also take Brightline from its downtown Miami and Aventura terminals with stops in Fort Lauderdale or Orlando.
Princess will also provide guests with complimentary motorcoach service between Brightline’s Orlando and Fort Lauderdale stations and their embarkation cruise terminal.
