Sky Princess®, is the newest addition to the Princess fleet. A Royal-Class ship like the P&O Britannia, it elevates the distinctive, contemporary design and luxurious attractions of the Royal-class ships to even loftier heights. Two powerful women are the Godmothers to the ship. Pioneering women of the U.S. Space Programme. Captain Kay Hire, and engineer Poppy Northcutt. There are seven Royal-class ships, with six operated by Princess and one by P&O.
Captain Kay Hire began her 30-year NASA career as a mechanical systems engineer, helping to launch more than 40 space missions. Then, as an astronaut, she logged 700 hours in space, flew over 12 million miles, and orbited the earth 475 times. Poppy Northcutt served as the first female mission control engineer when NASA made history with its mission to the moon. When the crew of Apollo 13 became stranded in their service module, it was her team’s calculations that brought them home safely – a feat of heroism that earned the entire mission operations a Presidential Medal of Freedom Team Award.
This is a great family ship.
