Dedicated single cabins

During the Radiance of the Seas multi-million dollar upgrade the ship will see 6 dedicated single cabins being built and added into the inventory for the ship! These are expected to be very popular in the Kiwi and Aussie market and will sell out !!

Although prices are still to be confirmed, we have been advised they will be 'considerably' lower than the current single pricing. This is a fantastic option for those single travellers out there who may of been put off cruising int he past because of the added cost of travelling alone!

Is smoking allowed onboard Princess ships?

As part of Princess Cruises ongoing commitment to ensuring that all passengers has a comfortable onboard experience, Princess Cruises will be introducing more restrictive smoking policies, and will prohibit smoking in passenger staterooms and balconies for all voyages departing after January 15, 2012.

Countries around the world from North America to Europe are moving to more restrictive smoking policies and their latest consumer studies show that smokers are a small minority of our passengers. As you may know, balconies are a hallmark of Princess Cruises, and we believe it is important to keep this peaceful space clear of smoke. Violations to this policy will result in a $250 fine for each occurrence, which will be charged to the passenger’s stateroom account. Keeping with the global trend and honoring the wishes of their passengers, we feel this change will enhance our onboard experience and do more to help our passengers escape completely.

Of course they will still welcome passengers who smoke, and will continue to provide convenient smoking areas throughout each ship, including cigar lounges, a section of the nightclub and casino, and a portion of the open decks.
