| Next Princess coming

Building has begun on the
third Princess Cruises ship in
the line of next-generation ships
which included predecessors
Royal Princess and Regal Princess.
The official keel laying of the
next Princess ship took place late
last week at the Fincantieri yard
in Monfalcone, Italy, attended by
Princess Cruises executives.
With the ship already confirmed
to be deployed to China in the
summer of 2017, a traditional
lion dance accompanied the
ceremony for the 3,600-pax ship.
Many of the ship’s features will
match those of her two sisters,
including an over-ocean SeaWalk,
Princess Live! TV studio & more.
