History
The vessel was delivered to Princess Cruises from the shipbuilders of Fincantieri, Italy and began operation in 1998, under the name Sea Princess.
Sea Princess was transferred to P&O Cruises in late 2002/early 2003. The vessel was renamed Adonia on May 21st, 2003, at a launching ceremony with sister ship Oceana. The Princess Royal and her daughter Zara Phillips named the sister ships in the first double ship naming ceremony ever. In 2005, the vessel was transferred back to Princess Cruises; the vessel reassuming her old name. The ship also received the "Movies Under The Stars" feature.
