Star Princess will accommodate 4,300 guests and, like Sun Princess, is based on a nextgeneration platform design. Sun Princess will be delivered in 1Q 2024 while Star Princess in 2025.

Princess Cruises, a world leading international cruise line and tour company, operates a current fleet of 15 modern cruise ships, carrying millions of guests each year to 330 destinations around the globe.
