Princess Cruises is starting to tease as it looks forward to the debut of its newest ship, Sky Princess, in 2019.
Its first reveal highlights innovative Sky Suites that should be a hit with families and movie buffs. Centrally located on the top decks of Sky Princess, they will feature 700 square foot private balconies, the largest ever offered by Princess. The balconies will provide a private vantage of the ship’s Movie Under the Stars screen and create an expansive space for entertaining. The two suites will also offer a 270-degree panorama and have sleeping capacity for five guests– making them ideal for families.
Other new features on the ship will include a Wakeview pool on its aft decks as well as two new deep-tank, top deck pools, a restorative Retreat Pool, and more Jacuzzis than previous Royal-Class ships. Two of the Jacuzzis will be cantilevered over the deep-tank pools.
Meanwhile Sky Princess will introduce more ways for guests to unwind, with its relaxing Sanctuary area offering a new contemporary design and twice as many private cabanas as its sister ships.
“Our two new Sky Suites reflect Princess Cruises’ continued commitment to offer new and expansive accommodations that meet the needs of our guests who wish to explore the world in ultimate comfort,” said Jan Swartz, president of Princess Cruises.
Debuting in the Mediterranean in October, 2019, the 143,700-ton Sky Princess will include the best of the features found on its three sister ships – Royal Princess, Regal Princess and Majestic Princess – as well as new offerings that represent an evolution of the current ships’ designs. There are many innovations yet to be revealed. Stay tuned.
