Duchess-Christened Ships

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Royal Princess Ship is a Luxury Liner Truly Fit for Royalty

— June 16, 2013 — Luxury
The Royal Princess Ship was recently christened by Kate Middleton, one of her last public appearances before the expected due date of the royal baby. It is fitting that this tradition was carried out by a member of the royal family, as this new luxury liner is truly fit for a princess.

The Princess Cruises' new ship is capable of holding nearly 4,000 passengers, with an atrium more than 50% larger than others on previous Princess ships.

The 19-deck vessel is set to embark on its first trip on June 16th, decked out with decadent gift shops, and carries the largest pastry shop at sea, which is perfect for large celebrations like birthdays and weddings.
