Princess the champ ship in San Francisco
Princess Italia is now offering more sailings from San Francisco than any other cruise line, according to the company.
It plans more than 20 departures next year.
In addition to yearly favorites such as a trip to Alaska and the Mexican Riviera, Princess has a number of “exotic” sailings on tap from San Francisco, including several luxurious month-long Pacific crossings to (or from) Sydney, a special voyage to Central and South America, and the opportunity to travel “Aussie style” to Asia.
“The latter option is part of Princess’ new Australia-based cruise program on Sun Princess, which will bring that ship to town as part of a Pacific Circle voyage, with segments ending and beginning in San Francisco,” the company said in a news release.
“San Francisco has long been an important port for us, and we’re continuing to offer more departures from ‘The City by the Bay’ than any other cruise line next year,” said Jan Swartz, Princess’ senior vice president of customer service and sales. He added:
“I think many travelers might be surprised by the variety available, with these unique sailings to South America, across the Pacific and even to Asia.”
