Wave Season, the booking period during the first quarter of each year when cruise lines offer some of their best discounts, is once again here — and Princess Cruises has a promotion that delivers significant savings for couples, families and groups of friends.
With its 2026 Wave Season Come Aboard Sale, Princess is offering up to 40% off fares on all cruises across its entire fleet. It's also offering discounted deposits and additional ways to save on a vacation at sea.
Between now and Feb. 16, guests who book a cruise on any of Princess’ 17 ships — including the new Star Princess, which debuted in November, and its Sphere-class sibling Sun Princess, which launched in 2024 — can enjoy up to 40% off cruise fares. They can also receive up to $500 in instant savings, 50% off deposits, and free third and fourth guests in the same cabin.
