Princess Cruises has unveiled its most extensive destination-focused itinerary to date with the introduction of a 131-day Circle Pacific Voyage, setting sail in January 2026. Spanning 60 ports across 19 countries around the Pacific, this itinerary aboard Coral Princess replaces the previously announced 2026 World Cruise, bypassing the Red Sea region in favor of an enhanced Pacific route.

Travelers may alternatively opt for a shorter 115-day roundtrip voyage departing LA on January 21st, 2026, or select regional segments.

Highlights include iconic destinations such as Auckland, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Fiji, Osaka, Singapore, Sydney, and Tahiti, with extended stays for deeper immersion in each locale.

The shift in itinerary follows extensive consultations with security experts and authorities, prioritizing safety while preserving a robust travel experience.
