Welcome to the Emerald Princess True t6 its name, Emerald PrincesssM is a majestic floating palace. Introducing many unique features such as the lovely Piazza, where you can get a bite to eat or just relax and people-watch, the Adagio Bar for pre-dinner cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, and The Sanctuary, a relaxing adults-only retreat. Other highlights of this brand new ship include the Crown Grill, modeled after a classic steakhouse, our traditional Sabatini with its dazzling multi-course Italian feast and Movies Under the Stars®, our poolside movie theater.

Your Captain Captain Giorgio Pomata, the Officers and Crew, take pleasure in welcoming you aboard the Emerald Princess. We will make every effort to make this cruise a memorable experience. Our Captain, Giorgio Pomata, was born in the small town of Carloforte on the Island of San Pietro. Growing up on an island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, he had dreamed of going to sea since being a child. Shortly after graduating from nautical school in 1972, he joined the Italian Navy where he served for 2 years, primarily with the Italian Coast Guard. His Merchant Navy Career began as a junior officer on board tankers between the years 1975 and 1978, and in 1978 he joined Sitmar Cruises. Since joining Sitmar, Captain Pomata has served on board all the Sitmar ships and, following the merger with Princess Cruises, he continued to serve in the position of Safety Officer on board Crown, Regal, Fair and the original Star Princess. His first senior appointment was in January 1992, when he served as Staff Captain on board Crown Princess. He has since served on board Sun Princess, Dawn Princess, Royal Princess, Ocean Princess, Star Princess, Grand Princess, Island Princess, Coral Princess and Emerald Princess as Captain.
