Dubai chosen as key overnight call on Princess Cruises’ 2021 World Cruise

Princess Cruises’ annual 2021 World Cruise roundtrip from Sydney, Australia will feature Dubai as a key overnight port on the packed itinerary, one of just three on the entire 108-day voyage.

The World Cruise aboard Sea Princess will visit 44 destinations in 29 countries, including 10 new world cruise ports and will feature its own dedicated music playlist, according to a press release.

Princess Cruises has curated a special Spotify playlist “Songs of the Sea” featuring 108 great songs inspired by the ship’s 108-day itinerary, which includes a maiden world cruise visit to England’s Liverpool, home to The Beatles.

The list will be shared with guests once they book on the cruise, and played onboard throughout the sailing.

“Princess Cruises has been sailing on world voyages from Australia for more than a decade – we know what our guests enjoy and we listen to their feedback, which is why so many people book with us again and again,” said Stuart Allison, Senior Vice President, Asia Pacific, Princess Cruises.

“Not only will our guests be able to visit some of their favorite ports around the world as well as a host of new ones, they will pay for their entire trip in Australian dollars which means they can travel the globe without the stress of exchange rates,” he added.

Cruising north from Australia through the Middle East to the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, then west to Canada and the USA, the 2021 World Cruise will include overnight calls in Dubai, New York and Lima, while guests will be able to board in Auckland, Sydney or Brisbane.

The itinerary includes Princess Cruises’ first ever call to Red Bay in Canada as well as nine other maiden world cruise ports: Nuuk in Greenland, Elba (Italy), Marseille (France), Malaga (Spain), Tangier (Morocco), Liverpool (England), Holyhead (Wales), Invergordon (Scotland), and Grand Turk (Turks and Caicos).
