“We had such a blast connecting with fans on our theme cruise in 2022, so bringing it back in 2024 feels like it was meant to be, especially with the addition of some surprise guests,” said Jill Whelan, Celebrations Ambassador for Princess Cruises. “Sailing with our fans brings us so much joy and this cruise will undoubtedly be a special reunion, taking us back to where it all began – on a Princess Cruise.”

Super fans may opt for a special Love Boat VIP Package. This package features an invitation to an exclusive cast cocktail party, reserved seating for the cast Q&A, and front-of-the-line access for autographs and photos. Plus, it includes dinner at the Captain’s Table, a themed cruise t-shirt, and mug. More details on cost and how to book coming soon.

The seven-day Canada/New England Love Boat theme cruise is aboard the 3,660-guest Enchanted Princess. It sails roundtrip from New York City and visits Newport, Rhode Island; Boston; Rockland, Maine; Saint John, Canada (for Bay of Fundy); and Halifax, Canada.

The Love Boat brought cruising to the masses showcasing the romance of the sea, taking Hollywood’s biggest stars to sought-after destinations as story lines always ended on a happy note.

In the fall of 2022, Princess was the setting of The Real Love Boat on CBS and Paramount+. This reality dating adventure series starred three real-life Princess crew members and 12 singles looking for love with hosts Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell onboard Regal Princess in the Mediterranean.
