Take a look around this Britannia clone, the Regal Princess, which was the setting of the first-ever six episodes of the TV series The Cruise. Sister of the Royal Princess and Britannia with almost the same capacity. Built in 2014 she carries 3,560 guests in 1539 staterooms in 38 categories. 36 are the wheelchair-accessible rooms. Her programme is often seven-day cruises from Fort Lauderdale, so she mixes well with a Disney, Canaveral/Jetty Park or other theme park breaks. But, she also visits New England destinations of the founding forefathers into New York and the Caribbean. From  Ft. Lauderdale, Florida she crosses via the Azores Islands (Ponta Delgada), to Cherbourg, Zeebrugge, Rotterdam, Copenhagen and takes in Glasgow and the British Isles. This is a special ship that was built in Italy, did her sea trials in the Adriatic, her first season in the Mediterranean and then went to Fort Lauderdale for her name day (sorry about the Game of Thrones term, but as she did her tests in the Game of Thrones Adriatic it seems appropriate she has a name day). It was done in Florida in the presence of the six main stars of the television series The Love Boat, the ship’s godparents. We go into that story in the History of Princess Cruises, a must-read. Just as our history of Fred Olsen makes good reading. The big difference to the Britannia is that it has stairs in the middle and where the Limelight is they have Sabatini’s Italian Restaurant. It has a bigger casino, disco, an art gallery which is missing in the Britannia, and no ballroom like there is in the Britannia.
