  • MS Royal Princess is a Royal-class cruise ship operated by Princess Cruises, and the third ship to sail for the cruise line under that name. The ship was built in Monfalcone, Italy and it is the flagship of the Princess fleet, a designation held up to that point by Grand Princess.
    Construction of Royal Princess began on 15 March 2011, she was launched in August 2012 and and Fincantieri delivered her to Princess Cruises in Spring 2013.
    The ship measures 142,714 GT and has a capacity of 3,600 passengers. Her amenities include a pair of public areas cantilevered over the side of the ship on the top deck-a walkway on the starboard side and a bar on the port side. She has fewer pools than previous Princess ships and features expanded public areas, including the movie theater, the Sanctuary Bar and the central Piazza atrium. The ship also has more dining options than previous Princess vessels. The ships of this class are some of the first passenger vessels built compliant to the new safe return to port requirements.
    On 9 April 2013, it was announced that The Duchess of Cambridge would name Royal Princess in a naming ceremony in Southampton on 13 June 2013. The ceremony upheld British ship-naming traditions including the blessing, a performance by the Royal Marines and the pipers of the Irish Guards. Royal Princess arrived at the Ocean Terminal in Southampton on Friday 7 June, where a series of events commenced for customers and travel agents, including a special naming gala on the evening of Wednesday 12 June. The ship’s inaugural celebrations concluded with her maiden voyage on 16 June.
