Princess Cruises’ newest and latest Royal class cruise ship, Enchanted Princess, successfully completed sea trials this past week.
During sea trials, the cruise ship’s propulsion, speed, maneuverability, stabilizers, and safety features (fire suppression & life saving equipment) are all tested to make sure the ship is safe and seaworthy.
