Dawn Princess was a long-time favorite in the Princess Cruises fleet, offering comfortable cruising and destination-rich itineraries. Now retired from Princess, the ship remains a nostalgic favorite among past passengers.

What Happened to Dawn Princess?

Dawn Princess was transferred out of the Princess Cruises fleet in 2017 and now sails under a different name for another cruise line. Because of this transition, voyages aboard the Dawn Princess are no longer available for booking.

What Dawn Princess Was Known For

The ship was appreciated for its relaxed onboard environment, friendly service, and itineraries focused on scenic destinations. Her comfortable public spaces and classic design appealed to travelers who enjoyed a traditional cruising style.

Cruise Ship Alternatives to Dawn Princess

Travelers who miss the Dawn Princess may enjoy Princess Cruises’ Coral Class, like the Island Princess, or the Diamond Princess from the Grand Class, which offer similar layouts and mid-sized cruising experiences.

For a more modern setting, Royal Class ships, like the Royal Princess, provide updated amenities while keeping the familiar Princess charm.
