Creator's Key Takeaways

The sanctuary on Princess is as good if not better than sailing on Oceanana.

The level of service from the crew, the whole experience, the aura, the everything is better than Oceanana.

I think people very loyal to Oceanana will stay loyal to Oceanana.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack your flexibility along with your patience for port changes.
Try the Sanctuary on Princess if you're considering other luxury lines.

YouTube Video Description

Today we’re talking about some important shifts happening across cruise lines, including a major announcement from Oceania Cruises, which is moving to an adults-only policy for all new bookings starting now. We’ll also compare what Oceania and Princess Cruises have in common, what’s changing, and why some cruisers are now saying the Sanctuary experience on Princess rivals — or even surpasses — what they’ve experienced on luxury lines. I’ll also share reminders about port changes, flexibility when cruising, and what to keep in mind as world events continue to impact itineraries. This is an important conversation for anyone cruising in 2026 and beyond.
