Isthmus Transit – Panama Canal & Puntarenas

About this cruise

Clear the calendar from March 18, 2027. This one's 16 nights from Fort Lauderdale, and the route visits Oranjestad, Panama Canal and Panama City, with additional stops along the Caribbean. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. The sailing ends in Los Angeles. It starts gently with sea days, so by the time you reach the first port you'll have explored the ship and actually feel on holiday. 5 countries (Aruba, Panama, Costa Rica, Mexico and United States) across the Caribbean, each with its own character. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on Island Princess. 3 restaurants come with the fare, plus 3 more when you feel like treating yourself. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. A March departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 16-night sailing is a strong place to start.
