Ship Visit - Princess Cruises Emerald Princess

In July our Guest Experience crew Angela & Jen stepped onboard Princess Cruises Emerald Princess for a ship visit in Liverpool! Emerald Princess is now 18 years old having launched in April 2007! However the feeling from our crew is that a lot of the areas have now been refreshed and you wouldn't know her age.

Emerald Princess is one of the 7 grand class ships along with Caribbean, Grand, Sapphire, Diamond, Ruby and Crown. Now all ships do have an older feel, as expected for ships that have been built between 1998-2008, but they have all recently had refreshes. Everything onboard Emerald was clean and well kept and in fact our crew saw Princesses crew doing paint touch ups outdoors while we went round. Modern touches such as the interactive touch screen maps dotted around help too!

The ship carries just over 3000 guests with 1200 crew to take care of you. Emerald is just over 110,000 tonnes so a nice mid to large sized ship. There are 19 decks to explore with all you would expect to see from a Princess ship - bars, great dining venues, theatre, pools, casino and of course that stunning central atrium we know and love; a real feature of Princess ships!

So while not the newest, Emerald does have some fantastic itineraries as she roams the world... everything from Mexican Riviera to the Baja Peninsula to Panama Canal to Hawaii and even a little Alaska! Lots to love...
