By Melissa Mayntz Verified| Cruise Hive Verified There’s nothing quite like celebrating New Year’s Eve on a cruise ship, with hundreds or thousands of guests gathered on the deck to count down at midnight as the ship sounds its horn at the stroke of 12. But what if your highly-anticipated New Year’s cruise had its itinerary completely swapped? Guests booked to ring in 2026 aboard Princess Cruises’ Sky Princess are facing exactly that.

Guests aboard Princess Cruises’ Royal Princess are experiencing just that as the ship has remained in Auckland, New Zealand two days past her originally scheduled departure that had been planned for Wednesday, April 16, 2025.
