Princess Cruises Announces Updated Return to Cruise Operations Timing for 
Island Princess and Diamond Princess 
 
SANTA CLARITA, Calif. (August 25, 2021)  - Princess Cruises, the world's 
leading international premium cruise line is announcing updated restart timing 
for Island Princess and Diamond Princess. Island Princess will now return to 
service with a series of cruises to the Caribbean in spring 2022, prior to its 
14-day Panama Canal Ocean to Ocean voyage on April 27, 2022. Diamond Princess 
will also return to service in spring 2022 with a season of Japan sailings. 
Details of both new programs will be announced shortly. 
 
Island Princess and Diamond Princess join eight MedallionClassT ships - 
Majestic Princess, Grand Princess, Ruby Princess, Enchanted Princess, Sky 
Princess, Regal Princess, Caribbean Princess and Emerald Princess-which have 
returned to service or are scheduled to restart by November 28, 2021, taking 
guests to Alaska, the Caribbean, Panama Canal, Mexico, Hawaii, and the 
California Coast. 
 
"Following our successful restart in Alaska and the UK, we look forward to 
welcoming our guests back on board as we continue our return to cruise 
operations, keeping the health and safety of our guests and teammates our top 
priority, said Jan Swartz, Princess Cruises president." 
 
As a result of these changes, Princess Cruises is cancelling its 2021-2022 
South America & Antarctica Program, and its 2022 World Cruise along with two 
December 2021 Island Princess cruises. 
 
For guests booked on a cancelled cruise, Princess will offer to move them to an 
equivalent future cruise with the added benefit of protecting their 2021/2022 
fare on their future cruise. Alternatively, guests can choose a future cruise 
credit (FCC) equivalent to 100% of the cruise fare paid or a full refund to the 
original form of payment. 
 
Requests must be received through this online form by September 30, 2021, or 
guests will automatically be moved to the default alternate. FCCs can be used 
on any cruises booked by and sailing by December 31, 2022. 
 
Princess will protect Travel Agent commission on bookings that were paid in 
full in recognition of the critical role they play in the cruise line's 
business and success. 
 
The most current information and instructions for booked guests affected by 
these cancellations, and more information on FCCs and refunds, can be found
