Designed to capture the awe and wonder of sailing through Alaska’s legendary Inside Passage, the float will celebrate the upcoming 2026 inaugural Alaska season for Star Princess, the newest star in the Princess fleet.

As the #1 cruise line in Alaska, Princess will bring “The Great Land” to life in vivid color and imagination.

The float will showcase towering glaciers shimmering in icy blues, soaring bald eagles, spouting humpback whales, and bears salmon fishing – all crafted from thousands of fresh flowers, seeds, bark and natural elements.
