Due to Canada's ban on cruise ships until November 2020, the Carnival Corporation-owned premium brand Princess Cruises extended its pause in passenger shipping operations on 6 liners.

Because of global events impacting travel, including Canada's restrictions, Princess has extended their pause of global operations and canceled the following Alaskan USA West Coast and Hawaii cruises:

In early-June, because of Canada's travel restrictions, Princess canceled all Alaskan, US West Coast and Hawaii cruises leaving from Vancouver BC.

Customers booked on one of the canceled sailings receive 100% of the value of the cruise or cruise tour fare paid as an FCC (future cruise credit), and also receive an additional 25% bonus FCC. The FCC can be used on any sailing through May 1, 2022. 

Passengers can request a refund for all money paid on the booking via an online form on Princess.com. Requests have to be received by June 30, 2020, or automatically receive the higher value option including a bonus 25% FCC.
