The Crown Princess is a Grand-class cruise ship operated by Princess Cruises. Specifically, it belongs to the "modified" Grand-class design, sometimes referred to as the Crown-class, along with its sisters Emerald Princess and Ruby Princess. These ships are larger and feature an additional deck of passenger cabins compared to the original Grand-class ships like the Grand Princess. In 2026, the Crown Princess remains a favorite for its "classic" cruise feel, featuring the signature Princess Piazza, the Movies Under the Stars outdoor screen, and the Sanctuary adults-only retreat. The ship has a gross tonnage of approximately 113,000 and can carry over 3,000 guests. While Princess has since launched larger "Royal-class" and "Sphere-class" vessels, the Crown-class is often praised for having a better "space-to-guest" ratio and for its ability to fit into smaller, more exotic ports that the new "mega-ships" cannot reach.
