Princess Cruises Extends Pause of Guest Cruise Vacations to Select Alaska, Canada & New England and Pacific Coastal Sailings in 2021
SANTA CLARITA, California, February 24, 2021 - As Princess Cruises continues to review and assess its operations as a result of the Canadian Transport Ministry s Interim Order that extends the closure of Canadian ports and waters to passenger vessels, the company has found it necessary to cancel the following voyages:
Alaska seven-day Voyage of the Glaciers cruises, sailing between Vancouver, B.C. and Anchorage (Whittier)
Pacific Coastals that start or end in Vancouver, B.C.
Along with their Carnival Corporation brand sister line Holland America, Princess Cruises was forced to cancel select Alaska, Canada, New England and Pacific Coast cruises in 2021. Earlier this month, Canadian Transport Ministry announced an Interim Order that extends the closure of Canadian ports and waters to passenger vessels over 100 passengers until February 28, 2022.

We understand, how much of Alaska is dependent on the cruise economy. We are going to do all we can to help our business partners and the communities of Alaska.”
