Princess Cruises’ Emerald Princess to Sail Canada and New England Voyages from Boston

Princess Cruises’ Emerald Princess is set to sail into its new homeport at the Flynn Cruiseport in Boston on July 14, 2024. The ship will spend an inaugural season of scenic Canada & New England voyages, and a special opportunity to visit the world's largest island - Greenland.

Emerald Princess will offer a total of 10 different Canada & New England cruises from July 14 to October 7, 2024, ranging in length from seven to 17 days. Guests will enjoy leaf peeping, lighthouses, and the chance to explore quaint seaside villages. There is even a bucket-list opportunity to visit three ports in Greenland, home to stunning landscapes, magnificent fjords, and unique wildlife.

"The debut of Emerald Princess for our maiden Boston season celebrates a convenient new home port for New Englanders and beyond to set sail on a premium cruise at an exceptional value, especially when compared to land-based vacations," said John Padgett, Princess Cruises president. "Our presence also generates substantial revenue for local businesses from our guests and crew, as we'll bring upwards of 30,000 cruisers to experience all that Boston has to offer."

• Canada & New England – Seven days, roundtrip from Boston visiting Halifax, Sydney, Charlottetown, and Portland or Bar Harbor. Cruises depart July 14, 21, 28; August 4, 2024.

"We wish Princess Cruises success as they expand their presence in the region with this inaugural homeport season offering sailings from July – October to Canada/New England. We appreciate Princess Cruises' continued support as each Emerald Princess visit will provide substantial economic impact in both revenue and jobs throughout Massachusetts and New England."
