The ship
Royal-class: SeaWalk and specialty depth
Majestic Princess is Royal-class Princess Cruises from 2017: SeaWalk glass walkway, a deep specialty dining stack and room for about 3,560 guests. Built first with Asia programmes in mind, she carries modern Princess soft entertainment with Piazza LED evenings.
Main Dining and Horizon Court cover included hours; International Café fills the gaps. Specialty dining is the paid layer. Among them are Crown Grill, Share and Asian specialty rooms. Drinks packages and covers are extra — price those into the week.
Evenings centre on Princess Theatre productions and Piazza energy; daytime is SeaWalk, Sanctuary adults space and Lotus Spa. She is Royal-class Princess — not Grand-class simplicity, not a quiet expedition ship.
If you want SeaWalk thrills, Piazza LED nights and a deep Princess specialty stack, Majestic is a clear choice — just budget covers and drinks into the week.
On board
Specialty, theatre, SeaWalk
- 01
Specialty stack
Main Dining and Horizon Court handle included meals; International Café covers coffee and bites. Specialty nights repay a plan — among them Crown Grill, Share and Asian specialty rooms. Reserve early; Royal-class guest counts notice the popular slots. Specialty doors repay an embarkation-day reservation — the same 19:30 sea-day slot is popular across the ship. Keep one or two included nights in the plan so the week does not become cover-charge maths.
- 02
Princess Theatre
Princess Theatre runs production shows sized for Royal-class crowds. Programmes change by season — check your sailing rather than chasing a brochure title. Arrive early for centre seats on popular nights. Reserve popular specialty tables on embarkation day — sea-day 19:30 slots go first. Covers and drinks packages sit outside the simple cruise — price what you will actually buy.
- 03
Piazza after dark
Piazza LED evenings, lounges and live music carry the after-show loop. Drink packages sit outside many prices — price what you will actually drink. The mood is modern Princess social energy. Live music, trivia and quieter cocktail corners fill the gaps between headline shows. Price drinks packages against what you will actually order; a short bar crawl still adds up on a long week.
- 04
SeaWalk and Sanctuary
SeaWalk is the glass-walkway talking point. Sanctuary gives quieter adults sun; Lotus Spa treatments are mostly extra. Claim Sanctuary early if hush matters on a busy sea day. On a ship carrying roughly 3,560 guests, timing matters more than the brochure photo.
- 05
Families
Youth clubs run Princess age bands. Peak weeks feel full. Families who will use the clubs get good value; couples wanting hush should favour Sanctuary and spa hours. School-holiday weeks feel full — book popular club windows early. Families chase splash edges; adults often want the quieter rail. Thermal spa time is a separate spend on most lines — book a sea-day pass if heat loungers are your reset rather than another crowded sundeck.
Crown Grill
Crown Grill is Princess’s specialty steakhouse — one of the pricier covers. Quieter and more dressed-up than Horizon Court or the main dining rooms. Go here for a splurge dinner, not a cheap filler night.
Share / specialty
Share / specialty is a specialty room — more of an occasion than the main dining rooms. Cover charge applies on most sailings — a higher spend than the included decks. Reserve early on sea days if this is your one treat night.
Specialty Asian
Specialty Asian is the Asian specialty night — teppanyaki theatre or quieter sushi plates depending on the door. Cover charge applies; expect a higher spend than buffet or main dining. Book early on sea days if knife-and-flame tables are your kind of evening.
Horizon Court
Horizon Court is the big casual option for breakfast, lunch and low-fuss evenings. Included in the included dining — no cover charge for the standard sitting. Ideal if you prefer self-serve or a fast seat on a port morning.
Main Dining
Main Dining handles the included evening meals — assigned or flexible depending on your cruise. Included in the included dining — no cover charge for the standard sitting. Best for guests who want a classic cruise dinner without budgeting extras every night.
International Café
International Café covers grab-and-go and casual bites between proper dinners. Some items are included or low-cost; fancy coffees and treats often extra.
Princess Theatre
Princess Theatre hosts Princess production shows. This is cruise-stage entertainment, not a fixed West End transfer — programmes change by season, so check your sailing. Included with your cruise. Grab a centre seat on night one if the headline show matters.
SeaWalk
SeaWalk is the outdoor heart for swim, sun and sea-day loitering. Open with the cruise — no ticket, though drinks and cabanas may be extra. Arrive early on warm sea days if a lounger matters.
Lotus Spa
Lotus Spa is the calmer daytime reset — treatments and thermal loungers rather than pool-deck noise. Treatments and thermal access are mostly extra — not in the simple cruise. Book ahead on sea days if heat loungers and steam are your reset.
The Sanctuary
The Sanctuary is the quieter outdoor belt when it is open. Adults-only calm — often a day pass or suite key, not free sunbed space. Quieter than the main pool if adult calm is the plan.
Fit
Who she is for
- Princess fans who want SeaWalk, Piazza LED evenings and a deep specialty stack at Royal-class scale.
- Couples and families happy with modern Princess soft entertainment and at least one Crown Grill night.
- Not for guests who want Grand-class simplicity or quiet expedition travel. Choose Grand Princess or a smaller luxury line instead.
Where
Where Majestic tends to go
Built with Asia programmes in mind; Princess also moves Royal-class ships through other warm-water and coastal seasons. Exact bases shift by year.
Treat this as the ship’s range, not a fixed timetable. When this guide is public, sailings with two or more UK agent prices will sit at the bottom.
Before you book
What the brochure skips
- Price drinks packages, specialty dining and spa into the week — Princess prices are only the start.
- Compare UK agents on the same sailing — same date, cruise-only, two guests. The hero price should be the lowest bookable one, not the first logo you recognise.
