Princess Cruises will partner with Brightline intercity passenger rail to offer a "Rail and Sail" program to transport guests cruising from Fort Lauderdale and Port Canaveral.
Brightline will operate a train with four cars adorned with Princess Cruises' Love Boat branding, including the iconic sea witch logo. The Florida rail line will also feature Princess branding at five terminals.
Guests booking Rail and Sail packages through Brightline's website will receive a discount of up to 15%. Guests who book a Princess cruise through May 5 will receive up to a $150 credit per person for Brightline's Smart and Premium service based on stateroom type: $50 for interior and oceanview staterooms; $100 for balcony and deluxe staterooms; and $150 for mini-suites and suites.
Brightline departs daily with 16 roundtrip transits between Orlando and Fort Lauderdale, with stops in West Palm Beach and Boca Raton. South Florida residents can ride the Brightline from downtown Miami and Aventura terminals with stops in Fort Lauderdale and Orlando.
The rail company will offer complimentary motorcoach service between the station and embarkation terminal.
Guests can have their luggage delivered to their stateroom for $35 per bag. Luggage express will be initially available on Orlando-to-Fort Lauderdale trains with plans to add the service to Fort Lauderdale-to-Orlando trains ahead of the Caribbean Princess' arrival and homeport at Port Canaveral in November.
