Star Princess

I hate page under construction webpages. Nevertheless I haven't worked on this since 2015. Sorry. There are a few nuggets below. I'll get back to it someday.

we embarked on an eleven day Land and Sea Vacation to Alaska including eight days aboard Star Princess. I saved a lot of items from the trip including daily itineraries and other memorabilia. Much of it is shown below. Star Princess is a Grand Class ship delivered in 2002. It's one of three Grand Class ships to retain the Skywalkers nightclub in a position over the stern (others being Golden Princess and Caribbean Princess). Star Princess is most famous for having caught fire in 2006. Many amidships port-side accomondations (including ours) were burned out.

Deck Plans

I like looking at deck plans. Below is the deck plan from a Princess Catalog which is actually for sister ship Golden Princess. Next is an even bigger plan of Star Princess. Note the differences on Sun Deck 15. We had "Penthouse Suite" C410 on Caribe Deck 10, port.

In 2015 I acquired an 8 ½" by 11" drawing of Star Princess by artist Frank Camarda. Camarda offers dozens of liner and cruise ship drawings via eBay.

Recommended Shopping Guides

For each port of call we received a two-sided Recommended Shopping guide. We're not much into shopping, but if nothing else the maps were sometimes useful. The guides are shown below. Click thumbnails for larger images.
