The crew member was currently unaccounted for. Princess Cruises was coordinating closely with maritime and remained focused on the search efforts. TheSAR operation to find the missing crew member ended, after teams confirmed the crew member fell overboard and died.
Ship will be drydocked due to recent engine troubles
Three months after a series of engine problems started to impact multiple itineraries aboard the 'Regal Princess', the Princess Cruise has decided to send the vessel into an unscheduled dry dock in April 2025, a move that will shorten her transatlantic repositioning cruise. Guests booked to sail aboard the shup on a 24-night Night Western Europe & British Isles Grand Adventure cruise from Fort Lauderdale to Southampton were alerted to the change. The cruise ship is set to depart the Florida port on April 4 and arrive at Southampton four days earlier than planned, on April 24, rather than on April 28, which means that several port calls will be missed. The ship was slated to call at Kirkwall, Scotland, on April 24, Invergordon, Scotland, on April 25 and Edinburgh on April 26. The itinerary will retain port calls to four the ports of Falmouth, Cobh, Dun Laoghaire, and Belfast. Princess Cruises assured that the ship is fully certified for service by all applicable authorities and remains fully operational for all scheduled voyages through late April that will proceed as planned. Besides the British Isles ports, the ship is scheduled to call at Ponta Delgada, Azores; Brest, France; Amsterdam; Zeebrugge Belgium; Dublin; and Glasgow, Scotland.
Ship will resume sailings on Nov 17
After three cruises of the 'Regal Princess', due to depart on Oct 27, Nov 3 and Nov 10, had been canceled due to a technical issue with the power generators on the ship, Princess Cruises has now confirmed that all repairs have been completed, and it will depart on the Nov 17 sailing as scheduled from Galveston. Princess Cruises gave all guests who were booked on one of the three canceled cruises a full refund and a 50% credit to use for a future cruise. The Nov 17 sailing is a seven-night cruise to the Western Caribbean from Galveston. The ship will visit Costa Maya, Roatan and Cozumel.
