PORTHOLE

THERE’S nothing quite like celebrating a 50th milestone by welcoming a lovable new friend into the family.

To commemorate 50 years of sailing to Alaska, Princess Cruises has introduced the ohso-cuddly McKinley the Moose to its cruising community, a plush character friend who joins the brand’s original mascot, Stanley the Bear.

Passengers can meet McKinley, or “Mac” as his fans prefer to call him, on all 2019 Alaska sailings starting this month - a true honour, make no “moose-take”.
