Princess Cruises Alaska 2028: 185 Departures, 14 Itineraries, 8 Ships

Princess Cruises has opened sales for an expansive 2028 Alaska season, featuring 185 departures across 14 itineraries aboard eight ships. Choices range from glacier-rich voyages and wildlife-filled ports to immersive cruisetours and Princess Wilderness Lodge stays near some of the state’s most celebrated national parks. 

Princess Cruises has been sailing to Alaska since 1969, giving the brand nearly six decades of experience creating cruise and land vacations across the Great Land.

The company says it continues to offer guests a range of ways to experience Alaska through immersive cruises, cruisetours and exclusive wilderness lodges including Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge, Mt. McKinley Princess Wilderness Lodge, Fairbanks Princess Riverside Lodge, Kenai Princess Wilderness Lodge, and Copper River Princess Wilderness Lodge. 

“Alaska is one of the world’s most awe-inspiring destinations, and Princess has spent nearly 60 years helping guests experience it in a way few others can,” said Jim Berra, Princess Cruises Chief Commercial Officer. 

Key Details of the 2028 Princess Cruise Alaska Season:

  • 185 departures across 14 unique itineraries.
  • Sailings ranging from four to 16 days.
  • Eight ships, including the new Star Princess as well as Discovery Princess, Emerald Princess, Royal Princess, Coral Princess, Crown Princess, Island Princess, and Ruby Princess.
  • Convenient departures from Seattle; Vancouver, British Columbia; Anchorage (Whittier); San Francisco; and Los Angeles.
  • Visits to 16 destinations, including Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway.
  • Scenic cruising through four of Alaska’s most spectacular glacier regions: Glacier Bay National Park, Hubbard Glacier, College Fjord, and Endicott Arm & Dawes Glacier.
  • 86 visits to Glacier Bay National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Alaska’s most sought-after experiences.
  • More Ashore late-evening calls in select ports, giving guests additional time to explore local culture, wildlife and outdoor adventures.

Signature Voyage of the Glaciers

Princess’ Voyage of the Glaciers itineraries remain the hallmark of the Alaska season, sailing between Anchorage (Whittier) and Vancouver, British Columbia. These one-way voyages showcase some of Alaska’s most spectacular scenery, including visits to iconic ports such as Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway, with many itineraries featuring two glacier-viewing experiences and opportunities to combine the cruise with an immersive land-based cruisetour.

Roundtrip Inside Passage – Convenience from Desirable Homeports

Guests can also choose from a wide variety of roundtrip Inside Passage voyages departing from Seattle, Vancouver, British Columbia, San Francisco and Los Angeles, offering a convenient way to experience Alaska’s glaciers, wildlife and picturesque coastal communities. Ideal for first-time Alaska travellers, roundtrip Inside Passage voyages offer a convenient, approachable way to experience the region’s glaciers, wildlife and coastal communities from desirable West Coast homeports.
