Princess Cruises is unveiling its 2028 world cruise aboard Coral Princess, a 115-day voyage to 49 destinations in 24 countries on five continents.

The 2,000-guest ship is scheduled to depart January 3, 2028, with flexible segments ranging from 20 to 100 days.

Travelers who stay onboard for the entire 36,000-mile journey will have a chance to visit 39 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, enjoy numerous overnight and late-night stays and make a maiden call to Mossel Bay, South Africa.

For the first time, Princess is also offering a safari adventure in Africa.

Captain’s Circle members can take advantage of up to $3,000 in onboard credits per stateroom, and all guests are invited to join the official World Cruise 2028 Facebook Group.

The cruise is “unparalleled voyage designed for travelers to see the world in a meaningful, immersive way—with more overnight stays, more time in port, deeper cultural connections and unforgettable moments at every turn,” says Jim Berra, chief commercial officer for Princess Cruises. “Guests will embark on an exceptional and deeply rewarding journey with extraordinary exploration, effortlessly wrapped in Princess’ signature warmth.”
