The majestueux SKY PRINCESS, from the company Princess Cruises, will make its very first stopover in the port of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin, this Sunday, October 30 from 7:00 a.m. to 18:00 p.m., with around 2 cruise passengers, mainly American, on board. Cherbourg will be the only French stopover on the ship's itinerary and one of its last destinations before its return to territory across the Atlantic. This intense week of stopovers ends, next stopover, on Sunday November 6 with the return of the MSC Virtuosa.

A Sky Princess stopover does not go unnoticed. This liner, sistership of the ROAYL PRINCESS or REGAL PRINCESS, was commissioned on October 15, 2019 and is part of a series built for the Carnival group. A small nod to history, the SKY PRINCESS takes the name of another liner which was built in La Seyne sur Mer, in France, in 1984 and which served in the fleet between 1988 and 2000. The latter was was demolished in 2013 under the name ANTIC. © APPM Association .
