Princess Cruises announced the cruise line’s most destination-rich voyage ever offered with its new 131-day Circle Pacific Voyage departing January 2026 and visiting 60 ports in 19 countries around the Pacific Ocean.
This voyage replaces the previously announced 2026 World Cruise to bypass the Red Sea and surrounding region.
On sale now, this new itinerary aboard Coral Princess departs Ft. Lauderdale on January 5, 2026, and sails through Hawaii, French Polynesia, the South Pacific, New Zealand and Australia, before continuing north on a tour of Asia highlighted with an extensive journey through Japan, followed by a Pacific crossing to experience the natural wonders of Alaska.
Finally, after cruising southbound along the scenic Pacific Coast, the adventure culminates in Los Angeles on May 16, 2026. Guests may also choose a shorter 115-day roundtrip voyage from Los Angeles, departing January 21, 2026, as well as shorter segments sailing in various regions.
Iconic destinations await including Auckland, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Fiji, Osaka, Singapore, Sydney and Tahiti, with many late-night stays to enjoy the most time in port.
The decision follows extensive consultations with global security experts and government authorities to ensure Princess upholds the highest standards of safety while delivering an exceptional travel experience.
“This Circle Pacific Voyage is more than just an itinerary, it’s an invitation to explore some of the Pacific’s most iconic and remote destinations in a single, unforgettable journey,” said John Padgett, Princess Cruises president.
“We’ve crafted this route to showcase the beauty, culture, and diversity of 19 countries, from the volcanic shores of Hawaii to the bustling streets of Bangkok and the serene landscapes of Alaska.”
