History
AI-generated

Built by Chantiers de l'Atlantique in Saint-Nazaire, France, the vessel originally entered service as R Three for Renaissance Cruises before being acquired by Princess Cruises following Renaissance's collapse and renamed Pacific Princess, a name honoring the ship featured in the television series The Love Boat. After operating under Princess Cruises for nearly two decades, including seasonal deployments with P&O Cruises Australia, the ship was purchased by Azamara Cruises and renamed Azamara Onward.
