'Like the Porsche Club of America, Princess Cruises celebrates the finer things in life, and we are honored to be able to offer Porsche owners and enthusiasts exclusive cruise experiences they’ll cherish as much as their cars,' said John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises. 'We share an obsession for personalized experiences, and look forward to providing members with concierge service that creates a Princess Cruise vacation that’s customized uniquely for them.'

'Princess Cruise values align perfectly with PCA,' according to Vu Nguyen, executive director for Porsche Club of America. 'We’re excited that our members will be able to sail to more than 330 destinations on the world’s most innovative fleet ships, all at exclusive PCA rates.'

To kick off the new partnership, Padgett was on hand at the recent Werks Reunion Amelia Island, a gathering of Porsche automobiles and judging competition. He awarded the winning Porsche owner with a Princess MedallionClass cruise.
