About the Ship

What Travelers Say About Sky Princess

Reviews of the ship itself — the same for every Sky Princess sailing. Based on 700 discussions.

Sky Princess debuted in October 2019 as the third Royal-class ship and the trendsetter of the group - it was the first to introduce the headline Sky Suites and the aft infinity Wake View pool that later sisters adopted. U.S. News rates it 4.3 out of 5 from 345 reviewers and ranks it third among Princess ships, reflecting a ship that is comfortable, spacious, and well-regarded but a half-step behind the newer Discovery Princess in freshness. The atmosphere is classic Princess: an elegant three-deck Piazza, a relaxed and adult-leaning crowd, and the convenient MedallionClass app that handles ordering, payments, and locating your group.

What People Love

  • Introduced the Royal-class Sky Suites - two enormous suites on Deck 18 with wrap-around balconies overlooking the pool, a genuine standout for splurgers
  • First Royal-class ship with the aft infinity Wake View pool, a frequently praised, more grown-up alternative to the busy main pool
  • Well-rated at 4.3/5 from 345 U.S. News reviewers, with strong marks for cleanliness and smooth, organized embarkation and disembarkation

Common Complaints

  • Main dining room food is the most common complaint - multiple reviewers and U.S. News note it as subpar, pushing guests toward paid specialty venues
  • Entertainment quality is hit-or-miss; some reviewers criticized lackluster cruise-director programming and a flat onboard atmosphere
  • As an older Royal-class sister (2019), it lacks the freshest finishes and lighter cabin decor found on the newer Discovery Princess
