Karen Candy, a spokeswoman for Princess Cruises, issued this statement to Travel Agent a few moments ago:
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Japan especially those directly affected by today’s devastating earthquake," said Candy. "We currently have no ships in Japan, nor are any of our ships considered at risk from any tsunami activity."
She said all Princess passengers, crew and ships are safe. However, Princess has scheduled port calls in Japan later this month and Candy said the line would assess the tourism infrastructure to determine if any changes would need to be made in those calls. But, at this time, itineraries remain intact.
