THE PANAMA CANAL TODAYA major expansion completed in 2016 added the new Agua Clara Locks on the Atlantic coast and the Cocoli Locks on the Pacific coast, which can now accommodate larger ships to transit the canal. Caribbean Princess® was among the first large ships to sail the Agua Clara Locks, and Emerald Princess® will join her in the 2019-2020 sailing season.

FPO

SCENIC CRUISING IN GATUN LAKE Every transit through the Panama Canal locks includes scenic cruising through the wild and wonderful Gatun Lake, once the world’s largest man-made lake, dotted with small islands and lush vegetation. The powerful tankers and container ships are a sight to behold and this intimate view of the Gatun Lake canal system is something only a cruiseship can provide.

AN ENDURING LEGACYThe Panama Canal took a full 10 years to complete, with upwards of 50,000 workers at a time carving through thick jungle and granite. It took 4.5 million cubic yards of concrete to make the locks and dams of the canal, and more than 60 million pounds of dynamite to excavate and construct it. When it opened in 1914, the 51-mile-long waterway through the Isthmus of Panama finally linked the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. In doing so, it forever changed the course of travel, as ships sailing from New York to California could cross the canal in eight to 10 hours, rather than making the nearly 8,000-mile-long journey around Cape Horn.

Panama Canal construction showing workers drilling holes for dynamite in bedrock. 1913.

It’s been deemed one of mankind’s greatest engineering achievements, and sailing the Panama Canal has become one of the must-do travel experiences of the world.

Watch from the Promenade deck or from your balcony as your ship is raised and lowered through the Panama Canal’s lock system, powered by gravity using water pulled from Gatun Lake, and you’ll be struck by the capacity of human ingenuity. Each historic lock fills with an astonishing 52 million gallons of water and measures 110 feet across and 1,050 feet in length, leaving a berth of only 16 inches on either side of your ship. While the new, expanded locks can accommodate larger ships, the process is equally as astounding. A Panama Canal expert will give a live narration from the bridge as you transit the Canal, providing history and insight along the way.

THE CANAL EXPERIENCEAs you glide from port to port, diversity of people and sites you’ll encounter in Central and South America is a wonder to behold. Travel by dugout canoe to an Embera village in the heart of Chagres National Park in Fuerte Amador. Witness history as you ride the world’s first transcontinental railroad, the Panama Canal Railroad. And soar above the jungle paradise of Soberanía National Park via aerial tram. You’ll also have access to six UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the Archaeological Site of Panamá Viejo, the Historic District of Panamá, and Fort San Lorenzo, one of the most complete and biggest forts built in Panama.

Panama Canal: An Engineering MarvelConnecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the 51-mile Panama Canal was considered one of the greatest man-made wonders of its time, saving ships the 8,000-mile journey around South America by cutting across the Isthmus of Panama. The system of locks allows ships to ascend and descend via chambers that are filled with water flowing by force of gravity.

three ways to sail: FROM THE EAST COAST Choose from a selection of 10-day roundtrip cruises from Ft. Lauderdale, sailing through the historic Gatun Locks or the new Agua Clara Locks. Explore the engineering marvel of the locks system, the abundant wildlife in the rainforest of Costa Rica, and top-rated beaches of the Caribbean on an adventure to remember. See page 6.

engaging entertainment

Experience dazzling entertainment while setting sail from one ocean to the next. Watch in awe as stage lights, music and performers blend in a Broadway-caliber performance, or steal the show while competing in The Voice of the Ocean.

MOVIES UNDER THE STARS®

You may be seated poolside, but you’ll feel as if you’re right in the action when you attend a movie in our 300-square-foot outdoor movie theater. Don’t forget the complimentary popcorn!

THRILLING NIGHTLIFEYour Princess ship comes alive at night with entertainment from bow to stern. Pianists fill our bars and lounges with sweet, melodic tunes. You can also catch top-rated comedians and illusionists in many of our lounges.

BRING HOME SOMETHING NEW Shopping is more than just a leisure activity — it’s a complete indulgence. The Shops of Princess® offer some of the finest retail experiences at sea. With designer brands like Swarovski, Effy and Citizen, there’s something to satisfy every taste and price point.

FEELING LUCKY?Try your hand at all your favorite Vegas games in our onboard casino — from blackjack, roulette and craps to video poker and slots. Will you be the lucky one to hit the jackpot?

CURTAIN UP! We’ve partnered with Broadway legend Stephen Schwartz to bring you two original productions. Magic to Do combines a spellbinding story of magic with some of his most popular songs, while The Secret Silk is the story of an Asian folkloric tale featuring puppetry, music and

dance. Princess® also showcases the talents of professional singers and dancers and an orchestra in Encore, an original production set in an elegant Montecito garden. And if you’re a fan of the popular TV singing competition The Voice, you’ll love our version of the show — The Voice of the Ocean.
