SANTA CLARITA, Calif., Sept. 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Regal Princess guests will have the opportunity to connect with their fellow cruisers with the debut of Princess@Sea Messenger, a free mobile messenger feature offering guests an easy way to share updates and make plans during their cruise vacation.

The Princess@Sea Messenger is integrated in the complimentary Princess@Sea mobile app, accessed via a smartphone or tablet browser. It debuts on Regal Princess in November and will be rolled out to all cruise ships in the entire fleet by the end of 2015.

"We know it's important for our guests to be able to stay in touch with their fellow cruisers," said Jan Swartz, Princess Cruises president. "With the new Princess@Sea Messenger we're making it even easier for them to share their experiences, stay in touch and even make new friends."

Guests will be able to download Princess@Sea Messenger for free before sailing at the Apple or Android App Store or on board with the purchase of an internet package. Limited messaging functionality will also be available in Princess@Sea without downloading the app.

The award-winning Princess@Sea mobile app debuted aboard Royal Princess in 2013 giving guests the ability to check the day's events and activities, review the ship's itinerary and port guides, browse restaurant menus and even access their stateroom account.

Regal Princess begins her Caribbean cruise season on November 6 with a short preview sailing, followed by a schedule of seven-day Eastern Caribbean cruises to ports including St. Thomas, St. Maarten and Princess Cays in the Bahamas.
