Princess Cruises joins forces with REX to get regional Australia cruising

Princess Cruises has partnered up with Regional Express Airlines (REX) on its air platform EZair®, to better service travel agents and guests from regional Australia.

Princess EZair®, Princess Cruises’ flight booking tool, offers low rates and flexible terms so agents can book connecting flights along with their client’s cruise booking.

One of the most popular features is Late Arrival Protection which gives clients the assurance of getting on a cruise, when possible, if flights are delayed or cancelled as well as getting home if they miss a flight because of a delayed cruise or transfer.

Princess Cruises will make its return to Aussie shores in June, with Coral Princess set to embark on her maiden Australian deployment from Brisbane, on 16 June with a three-night cruise, the first of 21 cruises from the Queensland capital in 2022/23.

In a move worth an estimated $60 million to the Queensland economy, the 2000- guest ship will be homeported in Brisbane for 11 new departures ranging from 3-12 nights between June and August before returning for another 10 cruises this summer from November.

Then, on August 20, P&O Cruises Australia will base its latest ship, Pacific Encounter, in Brisbane for her first season in Australia, sailing on 24 cruises in 2022.
