Cruise Line Princess launches its new addition Princess Ruby
Not to be outdone by its siblings, Ruby Princess will feature many of the same amenities and design features as Crown and Emerald Princess. The piazza-style atrium is still present, as are the expansive spa offerings. Passengers can choose to eat at Crown Grill, which features seafood and steak, and will still enjoy personal choice dining. And evenings wouldn't be complete if Princess didn't offer its “Movies Under the Stars,” a title in the Princess lexicon for the now industry-wide, mega-screen movie screenings around the swimming pool.
Where It Will Sail: Ruby will sail roundtrip Western Caribbean itineraries from Ft. Lauderdale.
