Let Princess make every celebration one to remember in Alaska.
You’ve earned the right to celebrate your most special moments with flair, and there’s no better place than aboard a Princess cruise to Alaska (it’s the #1 cruise line in Alaska after all). Whether it’s a birthday, wedding, anniversary, or milestone moment, the wild beauty of Alaska sets the stage for a celebration unlike any other with majestic glaciers, wildlife encounters, and once-in-a-lifetime views all wrapped up in Princess’s signature elegance and comfort. Surrounded by beauty, joy, and your loved ones, you’ll be hard-pressed to wish for anything better.
The Most Special Day of Your Year
Imagine waking up on your birthday to the sight of snow-capped peaks and shimmering blue waters right outside your private balcony. Your heart will simply swell with gratitude. Start the day with breakfast delivered to your stateroom (fresh fruit, flaky pastries, and maybe a mimosa or two) while eagles soar overhead. Onboard, you’ll find plenty of ways to feel spoiled: a relaxing massage at the Lotus Spa, a gourmet lunch overlooking the sea, and a surprise birthday cake waiting for you at dinner in one of the specialty restaurants. With crew members who go above and beyond, even the smallest details feel extra special, and you deserve every bit of it.
All You Need Is Love (And a Cruise)
Celebrating romance, like a wedding or anniversary? Alaska offers the perfect blend of adventure and intimacy. Say “I do” onboard with a breathtaking glacier as your backdrop, or renew your vows at sea surrounded by loved ones, all of which will be orchestrated flawlessly by Princess’s expert wedding planners. For anniversaries, couples can enjoy a private balcony dinner under the midnight sun, champagne toasts, and couples’ spa treatments. Whether it’s your first year together or your fiftieth, there’s nothing like cuddling up on deck, watching a pod of whales breach in the distance, or strolling hand-in-hand through a charming Alaskan town like Skagway or Ketchikan and soaking in the gorgeous scenery.
Honor Your Milestones
Mark a retirement, graduation, or any other major milestone with glaciers, gold rush history, and gourmet dining. Princess offers enriching shore excursions that help make memories that last a lifetime, like dog sledding on a glacier, flightseeing over Misty Fjords, or salmon fishing with local experts. Back on board, raise a glass at the Wake View Bar, indulge in fine dining curated by world-class chefs, or catch live entertainment in the theater. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with the whole family, there’s something for everyone to enjoy, from kids’ programs to wine tastings and everything in between. You owe it to yourself to celebrate YOU and all you’ve accomplished in as grand a manner as possible. As the saying goes, you only live once.
What truly sets a Princess Alaska cruise apart for special occasions is the blend of luxury and authenticity. It’s not just a cruise, but a total immersion in one of the most awe-inspiring destinations on Earth, with all the comfort and elegance Princess is known for. Personalized service, celebratory touches like chocolate-dipped strawberries and champagne, and the breathtaking scenery of Alaska combine to make your special moment truly unforgettable.
A Princess cruise is a celebration.
Because every special occasion deserves to be well celebrated.
