A wide selection of itineraries and ships are offered, most on a seasonal basis (late fall, winter, and early spring); and a few varied itineraries are offered yearâ€"round, primarily in the Orient. Princess Cruises offers the widest and most extensive selection of ‘exotic cruises‘ to choose from. Three of Princess‘ ships â€" the Island, Pacific (the original ‘Love Boat‘) and Golden Princesses will spend up to five months "per year on ‘exotic cruise‘ itineraries.
