Princess Cruises has canceled all Majestic Princess sailings from Galveston from November 2026 to March 2027, affecting multiple itineraries. Guests who are impacted will receive refunds and assistance in booking alternative cruises.
Princess Cruises has canceled all planned trips on the Majestic Princess that left Galveston between November 2026 and March 2027. CruiseMapper says the decision, part of the cruise line's "broader global fleet deployment strategy," will change at least 12 itineraries.
The California-based company said in a statement that it was sorry for the trouble. Princess Cruises said, "We deeply apologize for any trouble this may cause our guests and ask that they please bear with us while we work to improve our global cruise offerings."
It's still unclear how many people were affected, but Princess Cruises promised that everyone would get their money back in full and that they would help guests find other cruise choices.
Princess Cruises stated that Regal Princess trips from Galveston will go on as planned until March 15, 2026, even though these trips had to be canceled. However, Majestic Princess was taken off the Texas-based schedule, so the company's deployment plans have changed.
Princess Cruises hasn't said where the Majestic Princess will be going yet; all they've said is they're looking forward to having people on board when they announce the ship's launch.
The cancellation comes after changes are made throughout the cruise industry as companies tweak their fleet plans to make their global offerings more appealing. People affected by the changes should call Princess Cruises to get information on how to get a return or rebook their trip.
