 Princess Cruises has added a section to its Facebook page dedicated to stories from passengers.

 The new "Princess Stories" tab offers a space for users to share their experiences, such as discovering new places and people, interactions with crew members, connections with family and friends, a milestone celebration or a romantic occasion.

The section will be updated regularly. Readers can rate and comment on the stories. In addition to stories shared by users, the space also features "Our Favorite Story from the Mailbag" showcasing interesting stories shared with Princess.

Some of the first stories include tales of secret weddings, meeting future spouses at sea and a guide dog's cruise experience. The first featured "From the Mailbag" story describes a chance meeting with a Princess employee who went out of her way to make sure some delayed passengers made it to their ship -- by driving them to the port herself.--Tanya Irwin
