Majestic Princess sailed into Sydney on the world’s first floating runway. The spectacular celebration was held to mark the maiden arrival of the ship, the largest Princess Cruises vessel ever to visit Australia.

The 3,560-guest Majestic Princess was filmed arriving into Sydney via the 1,550 metre-long illuminated floating runway, which was created by 62 buoys with red and white flares that guided its path into Sydney Harbour.

The newest ship in the Princess Cruises fleet, Majestic Princess will be based in Sydney for the next six months and will join three other Princess Cruises ships – Sun Princess, Sea Princess and Golden Princess in Australia. The vessels will sail from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Fremantle and Adelaide.

Princess Cruises recently announced its largest ever deployment in the region for 2019-2020. Five ships will travel to more than 100 destinations and carry around 200,000 guests.

Majestic Princess, current sailing, is being filmed as part of an ITV documentary The Cruise, which is due to air on ITV in early 2019.

The documentary will reveal what life is like for both crew and guests as they sail around Australasia.
