Princess Cruises Will Offer 180 Sailings to Alaska in 2026

Princess Cruises will offer their largest Alaska season ever in 2026 that includes 180 departures and sailings on their newest ship, Star Princess.

Princess Cruises will visit 19 different destinations in Alaska in 2026 and this year will be the first time that a Sphere class ship has visited the 49th State.

In addition to cruises, Princess also offers cruisetours that combine an immersive land visit to Denali National Park with a sailing to Alaska.

The 2026 season includes more than 20 cruisetour options, highlighted by the 15-night National Parks Expedition Tour.

This journey visits five iconic parks – Glacier Bay National Park, Denali National Park, Wrangell-St. Elias National Park, Kenai Fjords National Park, and Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park (Skagway).

The 15 nights include a seven-day cruise, scenic rail travel, and eight nights ashore, including stays at four Princess-owned wilderness lodges.

Since 2026 is America’s 250th anniversary, Princess Cruises will offer special onboard retail offerings on their cruises to Alaska. They include a limited-edition exclusive Pendleton blanket inspired by the iconic landscape of Glacier Bay National Park and a “Celebrating America 250 by Princess” collector pin.
