Overview
On July 25 2026, Princess Cruises’ Star Princess sailed into Alaska’s Endicott Arm fjord, bringing passengers close to the Dawes Glacier and offering wildlife sightings such as a brown bear on a hillside. The voyage emphasized the visual appeal of the Arctic landscape from onboard cabins and decks.
Two days later, the cruise line announced its 2028 Alaska season, outlining more than 185 departures across eight vessels, new itineraries that combine cruises with land tours, rail trips and lodge stays, and departures from multiple West Coast ports. The announcement also marked the 25th anniversary of the Juneau shore‑power connection, noting its role in cutting emissions and serving as a model for other ports.
Together, the snapshots show Princess Cruises’ ongoing focus on delivering Alaskan cruise experiences while expanding future sailings and highlighting sustainability initiatives.
