Princess is king of Panama Canal
Who has the most cruises to the ever-popular Panama Canal?
“We carry more passengers through the Panama Canal than any other cruise line, and we’re delighted so many travelers have chosen us over the past 40 years as the best way to escape and enjoy this ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ experience,” said Jan Swartz, Princess’ senior vice president of customer service and sales.
Princess has two ships, Coral Princess and the Island Princess, that are both purposely built for Canal cruising.
They offer Canal transit voyages as well as roundtrip partial transits.
“Together, these ships will offer a choice of 40 departures, on six Panama Canal itineraries. Princess ships offer the highest percentage of balcony staterooms of all vessels in this destination, so passengers have the perfect vantage point for watching the Canal’s locks as they lift and lower the ship a dramatic 170 feet,” according to the cruise line.
