Princess Cruises for Iranian Travelers Abroad
Princess Cruises' Sphere-class ships for Iranians holding a second passport, green card or US/Schengen visa — where they sail, the visa reality, and a live availability search.
Princess Cruises is built around the idea that a cruise should leave you refreshed — its long-standing promise is "Come Back New". The newest Sphere-class ships, Sun Princess (2024) and Star Princess (2025), are the largest in the fleet, carrying about 4,300 guests across 245 metres and featuring a striking multi-level glass dome atrium, the Princess Reserve Collection suites and new dining venues. Beyond the Sphere class, the Grand and Royal classes cover Mediterranean, Northern Europe, Caribbean and Alaska routes. For diaspora Iranians who value relaxed service and immersive itineraries over sheer scale, Princess is a compelling choice — provided the visa side is in order.
Where Princess sails
Princess is strongly associated with the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome), Barcelona and Athens, the Caribbean, and Alaska from Seattle and Vancouver. As with the other US-headquartered lines, the visa you need depends on the departure region, not on Princess itself.
The second-passport and visa reality
A Princess sailing that departs from or calls at a US portrequires entering the United States, so an Iranian passport alone is not enough — you need a valid US visa or a second passport / green card. Mediterranean and Northern Europe departures require a Schengen visa unless your second passport exempts you. The easy-visa routes for a single Iranian passport remain the Gulf, Turkey and Red Sea, operated by MSC, Celestyal and AROYA. If you hold the right documents, Princess's Mediterranean and Alaska programmes are within reach; if you do not, we will honestly point you to the lines you can board today.
How booking works
CruiseBaz does not hold a static feed for these lines. When you are ready, we search live availability through our cruise partner for the ship, route and dates you want, then confirm every detail by inquiry with our team on WhatsApp or Telegram. You receive a transparent quote showing the cabin category, port taxes and any optional flights — never an invented rate, only real, current fares from the live system.
