Ruby Princess

Mid-to-large ships with a traditional cruise feel and extensive Alaska land-and-sea programs, suited to travelers who prefer classic cruising over waterparks and thrill rides.

• Deep Alaska infrastructure: Princess runs its own Alaska lodges and domed railcars, pairing glacier cruises with Denali and national-park land tours.
• Wearable Medallion technology: A quarter-sized Medallion handles boarding, cabin entry, payments and ordering; Wi-Fi and deliveries carry fees unless packaged.

Worth knowing: Fares come in Standard, Plus and Premier tiers with very different drinks, Wi-Fi and dining inclusions; compare total per-day cost, not headline fares.

Style notes describe Princess Cruises in general, not this ship specifically.
