The Crown Princess sailed from Sydney earlier this month for a 35-night cruise to the South Pacific and Hawaii.

Sailing from Australia and New Zealand, the month-long cruise is part of the vessel’s year-round operations from homeports in the region.

The 3,100-passenger vessel initially sailed to Fiji and Western Samoa before arriving in Hawaii for calls to four destinations: Honolulu, Nawiliwili, Kahului and Hilo.

After spending a week at sea, the ship is now scheduled to sail to destinations in French Polynesia, including Tahiti. Highlights of the itinerary include a late-night departure from Papeete and a ten-hour call to Moorea.

Before returning to Sydney on October 7, 2026, the itinerary also features a visit to the port of Auckland.

The Crown Princess recently completed a world voyage that sailed from Australia and New Zealand in early May 2026.

The 114-night cruise included visits to nearly 50 destinations in 31 countries and six continents, including North America, Europe and Asia.

Repositioning to the Caribbean for the 2026-27 winter season, the 2006-built vessel will wrap up its operations in the South Pacific with a Round Australia cruise.

Visiting 11 destinations in the country, the 28-night voyage sails from Sydney and other homeports in early October.

With the Grand Princess taking over Princess’ year-round operations in the South Pacific, the Crown Princess is scheduled to sail from Puerto Rico in 2026-27.

The 3,100-passenger ship is then scheduled to reposition to North America’s West Coast for a summer season in Alaska, which will be followed by winter cruises in California, Hawaii and the Mexican Riviera.

Replacing its fleet mate, the Grand Princess arrived in Australia in early November, kicking off a year-round cruise program that runs through late September 2028.

The deployment features two- to 94-night cruises departing from Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Fremantle and Auckland.
