After 18 years of unforgettable voyages, it's sadly time for Pacific Princess to leave the fleet. However, with so many other Princess Cruises' ships to choose from, the perfect cruise awaits.
Pacific Princess is one of Princess Cruises smaller, more boutique-style ships, perfect for heading to less accessible destinations and a more intimate experience all while boastingthe fleet's same incredible standards. Less is more with Pacific Princess and her smaller size means more intimate restaurants, less crowds- there's only 680 people onboard- and of course, Princess’s great entertainment.

Dining
Onboard Pacific Princess, the Club Dining Room offers traditional fixed dining times, chosen at the time of booking, though for evenings where you fancy something a little different and more flexible you can head to the speciality restaurants for a small cover charge. The signature Sterling Steakhouse offers the finest steak and fantastic seafood, while the ever popular Sabatini's Italian Trattoria has remained a Princess favourite for a reason.

Useful Information
Dress code
The dress code onboard Pacific Princess combines smart casual and elegantly formal on one of the cruise lines most intimate ships, with black tie evenings taking place on some nights and a more relaxed, yet still smart casual affair on others.
If a long day ashore, in the spa or a leisurely lunch means you don't fancy dressing for dinner, you can head to the buffet, where casual dining takes place every night.

Iglu Cruise customer reviews for Pacific Princess
Friendly crew, not too large a ship, good food, amply-sized cabins. A few small gripes: they're very wasteful of paper, their shows are rather out-dated (song and dance format) and -- the daily irritant for me -- the desk chair in the cabin didn't have a back. Best crew member: Randy the lively pianist and singer.
This was my first cruise. I'm 59 and I was among the youngest on board. Not many peers to hang with. The food was horrible. I can't wait to get off so I can eat a good meal. We had to eat in the steakhouse at $60 for both of us to get a decent meal. They say their pizza is award winning (best on a cruise). Trust me....no way. The cheese is bad, bad, bad. I'm from Phila and that's NOT a good pizza. I don't eat a lot of meat. So I ended up having Fettuccini Alfredo almost every night. The only good dish the chef made was his pasta with tomatoe sauce. My boyfriend is a chef of 40 years and will eat a wide range of foods. He's been on 3 other cruises and thought the food was very dissappointing. Won't sail them again. I starved!!!!!!!!!
Just back from Norwegian fjords cruise on Pacific Princess, it was fabulous. The ports of call, all the fjords and right up to Svalbard and the Northern Cape were fascinating, but best of all were the crew and the ship -definitely the best in the fleet.
