Princess Cruises has released its 2011 Alaska program, with season opening sales beginning May 13 with special rates that include adding three days at Denali to a cruise for $299. The program offers a range of cruise options on amenity-filled ships as well as cruisetour options such as a stay in Princess’ signature wilderness lodges and exclusive Direct to the Wilderness program— where guests step right from their ship onto luxury railcars that transport them directly to the Denali area.

The season includes a total of 104 Alaska departures aboard six ships sailing on three itinerary options during the May to September season. The lineup includes Diamond Princess, Coral Princess, and Island Princess traveling on the line's Voyage of the Glaciers route through the Gulf of Alaska; Golden Princess and Sapphire Princess sailing the Inside Passage from Seattle, and Sea Princess cruising on 10-day journeys from San Francisco.

The cruisetour program combines a seven-day Voyage of the Glaciers cruise with three to eight additional nights on land exploring Alaska’s interior. For 2011, travelers can choose from four types of land and sea packages – Denali Explorer, On Your Own, Off the Beaten Path and Connoisseur. All cruisetours include the company’s exclusive wilderness lodges, rail or motorcoach travel, plus Glacier Bay National Park and Denali National Park, where visitors spend at least two nights exploring the wonders of this area.

Cruises
Voyage of the Glaciers – The line’s Gulf of Alaska route between Vancouver and Whittier (for Anchorage) features calls at Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway with daylight cruising in Glacier Bay National Park and the 16 glaciers of College Fjord (or Hubbard Glacier on southbound sailings). Diamond Princess and Coral Princess sail on Saturdays and Island Princess offers new Wednesday departures for a total of 54 sailing choices between May 18 and September 17.

Inside Passage from Seattle – Golden Princess and Sapphire Princess offer weekend departures on seven-day roundtrip itineraries from Seattle along the Inside Passage with calls at Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway and Victoria, British Columbia. Passengers will journey by Glacier Bay National Park (Golden Princess) or Tracy Arm (Sapphire Princess). The two ships will sail on 37 departures between May 14 and September 17, 2011.

Inside Passage from San Francisco – Sea Princess again sails from the “City by the Bay” on 10-day roundtrip cruises. The ship offers 13 voyages from San Francisco featuring the scenery of Glacier Bay National Park or Tracy Arm, stops at Victoria and Juneau, plus two other calls in Ketchikan, Skagway, Haines, Sitka or Icy Strait Point. Departures sail between May 10 and September 7, 2011.
