This 131-day World Cruise Stops in 19 Countries in the Pacific Ocean — Including French Polynesia, Australia, and Japan

Princess Cruises will sail its most "destination-rich" cruise ever in 2026, stopping in 60 different ports across 19 countries.

The immersive 131-day Circle Pacific Voyage will launch from Fort Lauderdale on Jan. 5, 2026, the company shared with Travel + Leisure, stopping in dreamy destinations from Hawaii and French Polynesia to Japan, Alaska, and more. The cruise, which will take place on board the Coral Princess, will end its journey in Los Angeles.

Princess said the new cruise will replace the company's previously announced 2026 World Cruise to avoid the Red Sea and the surrounding region. The company said the decision was made after "extensive consultations with global security experts and government authorities."

"This Circle Pacific Voyage is more than just an itinerary, it's an invitation to explore some of the Pacific's most iconic and remote destinations in a single, unforgettable journey," John Padgett, Princess Cruises' president, said in a statement shared with T+L. "We've crafted this route to showcase the beauty, culture, and diversity of 19 countries, from the volcanic shores of Hawaii to the bustling streets of Bangkok and the serene landscapes of Alaska."

The new cruise will visit popular cities all around the world, including Auckland, Sydney, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Fiji, Osaka, and Singapore, and include several "late-night stays" in port. In addition to the full cruise, Princess will offer shorter segments, including a 115-day roundtrip voyage from Los Angeles and even shorter cruises in other regions.

To celebrate the immersive journey, Princess is offering a slew of perks for travelers who book either the full 131-day cruise or the 115-day cruise by Dec. 31. These cruisers will receive the company's Princess Premier Package, which includes free premium beverages, free unlimited specialty dining, free gratuities, free Wi-Fi for up to four devices per guest, free unlimited fitness classes, and more. They will also receive up to $500 in onboard credit and free EZair airfare.

Rooms on the full 131-day cruise start at $32,549 per person for an interior stateroom.
