Ruby Princess will be a new addition to Princess Cruises's Caribbean Class fleet. She is scheduled to debut in November 2008. Like some of the other Princess ships, the ship will also have the "Movies Under The Stars" feature. The ship will also feature multiple entertainment and dining options like her other ships in the Grand Class fleet. She features two nightclubs, a piazza style atrium, multiple pools and hot tubs, a spa, and a gym. Unlike her sisters, Ruby Princess does not have a disco overhanging the stern, but the same stern as her near-sisters Diamond Princess and Sapphire Princess.
