The newly refurbished Diamond Princess has embarked on its inaugural sailing on a series of new cruise itineraries from its new homeport of San Diego.
The cruise line said that this milestone completes the Princess Cruises fleet.
John Padgett, Princess Cruises President said:
“Homeporting Diamond Princess in a destination as remarkable as San Diego and now giving our west coast fans four convenient to drive California departure points to enjoy the Original Love Boat is an outstanding combination.
“Whether you’re looking for four-, five- or seven-day convenient west coast vacations, or vacations that extend to Hawaiian or South Pacific, Princess Cruises has you covered at incredible values.”
From November 2022 through February 2023, Diamond Princess is offering a series of new cruise itineraries ranging from five- to 16-days.
The ship will call at ports along the Mexican Riviera, California Coast, and the Hawaiian Islands.
In addition, the ship sails a unique 20-day cruise to Central America, roundtrip from San Diego on November 27.
Chairman Dan Malcolm, Port of San Diego Board of Port Commissioners, said: “The Port of San Diego is proud to welcome the Diamond Princess, its Captain, crew and guests to the Port of San Diego.
“We are also happy to welcome Princess Cruises back as a homeported line, we look forward to a successful cruise season with them, and to many more years of partnership.”
