The story

What makes it different

Regal Princess is the second Royal-class ship and a direct repeat of her lead sister at 142,714 gross tons — the same 330-metre hull, the same Piazza, the same pair of SeaWalk and SeaView glass structures projecting from either side of the ship.

She was christened in 2014 by the principal cast of The Love Boat, the television series filmed aboard Princess ships in the late 1970s that gave the line a level of American name recognition it has traded on ever since.

Her career has been split between Caribbean winters and Northern European summers, and she remains one of the more heavily deployed ships in a fleet Princess pruned considerably during the pandemic — five ships left the fleet permanently in 2020 and 2021.
