Brief description in English only:

Majestic will showcase the exclusive Princess Class experience enhanced with features designed specifically for Chinese travelers
Majestic Princess will be the only cruise ship that offers two specialty dinner menus designed by Michelin star chefs at sea in China.
One offering is Harmony, created in partnership with Richard Chen, former chef of Wing Lei – the first Chinese restaurant in North America awarded a Michelin star. Harmony will feature haute Chinese cuisine paired with pristine ocean views and modern décor, serving Chen's interpretation of classic Cantonese dishes. The second Michelin star dining experience will be "La Mer – A French Bistro" from three-Michelin star chef Emmanuel Renaut.
The ship will also offer Princess' signature Movies Under the Stars, with the largest outdoor screen at sea, and the exciting Princess Water Color Fantasy fountain and light show.
Guests will also experience the signature SeaWalk, the industry's first glass-floor walkway at sea, and SeaView Bar featuring "flair" bartending with the best views at sea.
The Piazza Atrium, the central focal point of the ship, features live entertainment throughout the day and evening. It is a grand spectacle surrounded by The Shops of Princess, nearly 1,100 square meters of luxury boutiques, which include designer brand shops from Cartier, Bvlgari and Chopard and leather goods from Burberry and Gucci, to name a few.
Accommodations will be configured to appeal to families and multi generational travelers, and all outside staterooms will have private balconies

May 2017 Princess Cruises has announced that the Majestic Princess, will be based in Sydney over the 2018-2019, and will not be year-round in China as previously announced. As well, in 2018, Princess will move the Sapphire Princess out of the Chinese market and re-deploy the ship to Europe.The Majestic Princess will be the largest Princess ship ever to sail in Australian waters, with her deployment confirming the cruise line’s popularity amongst Australian and New Zealand cruisers, said Princess, in a statement. She will offer cruises in Europe and China before heading south to Sydney where she will be homeported from September 2018 through to March 2019, when she will return to China.

Perhaps the potential of the Chinese market is less than imagined!
