Princess Cruises is planning a recreation of much of its first cruise, 60 years ago, with a two-week cruise along the Mexican Riviera, starting in December.
“As we prepare to celebrate our 60th anniversary, we can’t help but look back at where it all began with one ship sailing to Mexico,” Gus Antorcha, president of Princess, said according to a news release. “This commemorative 60th Anniversary Cruise will not only pay tribute to our rich history but also bring together the joy of cruise travel, music and unforgettable moments.”
While the ship is much newer and larger than the original Princess Patricia, there will be plenty of Princess history aboard: Host for the cruise will be Jill Whelan, who played Vicki Stubing on “The Love Boat.”
